Why the forget they wouldnt use a standard on an expensive keyboard only God knows.

because they own romer-g and it's cheaper to manufacture something you actually own

But I wouldnt purchase this keyboard because when I look for a mechanical I look for "Cherry MX-Blues" and if I am paying $139.99 for a keyboard, God damnit I want a standard switches.

the real kicker for this expensive, proprietary keyboard is that nobody, except logitech themselves, makes keycaps for the switch

Should I get a Ducky Shine 4 or wait for the 5 to come out?

I really want the 5 but I'm not sure if it will come out in white like all the previous ones did, and I really want the 4 just because it comes in white.

[Daswiruch]

why don't you just wait and see what they have and not just jump onto one

I had the same question Carol replied with this I was Wtf-ing until I did a google search on it. It uses proprietary "Romer-G" switches. Why the forget they wouldnt use a standard on an expensive keyboard only God knows.

To be fair, Romer-G switches are not that bad.  Sure it is no cherry switch but has the same tactical feel but less clicky nature to it yet I find it to be a very enjoyable typing experience compared to a lot of keyboards I have tried.

But I wouldnt purchase this keyboard because when I look for a mechanical I look for "Cherry MX-Blues" and if I am paying $139.99 for a keyboard, God damnit I want a standard switches.

To be honest, to some like myself, 139.99 is not that expensive.  I enjoy the Romer-G's that I tried out at Microcenter first before buying and really enjoyed them versus the cherry switches.  But the price tag is interpreted differently by everyone.

Bit of a weird question, but can anyone recommend an extremely quiet keyboard?

more or less quiet than a scissor switch keyboard?

Since when was RAM so cheap, guys?!

$45 for 8 gigs is like what you would have paid for 4 gigs several months ago.

Oh jeez thats terrible people actually eat messy foods or chips while using their pc?


I never touch my keyboard or mouse unless my hands are washed, and when I eat its always with a fork.
