Why spend that much for a keyboard, i have this simple keyboard that cost me 20 bucks, i don't know but i think spending 90 bucks for a keyboard is odd, but you be you.

[Clownfish]

not to be rude but why do people buy keyboards like this
I've been using mine for like 3 years and I found it in my basement

[TheABELBOTO]

It shows your loveual orientation very well.

mechanical performs much better than a 20 dollar membrane keyboard

Why spend that much for a keyboard

#1: mechanical keyboards are a gift from zeus
#2: it's a really good sale
#3: the keyboard looks cool
#4: simple keyboards are good but sometimes you just gotta indulge yourself with some top dog stuff

[Aidan10]

What do you mean, its just a keyboard.

lol, is that "fact" based in reality somehow, or is it something you've pulled from your ass?

Well if you like it and are wanting to blow money on it, then by all means spend your money on it,
I just don't get why people need to spend tons of money on mousepads, chairs, keyboards, etc.

Well yeah, it's a cool looking keyboard. If you need a reason other than because it looks cool then you probably need to get a better keyboard

you dont have any experience with a mechanical keyboard vs a membrane keyboard
do i look at a Honda civic and a Lamborghini aventador and say what do you mean they're just cars?

dont be overly hostile for no reason

this is the rubberdome keyboard i have right now so i think it's a good upgrade

[shitlord]

oh god akio i had that keyboard
my cherry mx red mechanical is a massive improvement im sure the blues will be even better

[Aidan10]

But this is not what i mean, i mean, its just an aesthetic, and why compare it to a car? car is for heavy use.
