Anyone know where I can get a keyboard with greens? I really like the blues and I think the stiffer greens would be ever better...

I found this, but i was hoping for more options:

no keyboards with greens tho.

you'd have to buy switches (if u can find them) and mod the board

I was thinking about swapping out the springs, but I am not sure if I've got the patience (not to mention the fat fingers) to perform such a project. How difficult was that for you to do?

What kind of keyboard do you have? You familiar with soldering?

Finding black or clear springs should be pretty easy if you want to do "ghetto greens" / "cherry bruise".

Just remember Cherry MX Whites do not equal Cherry MX Greens by a long shot. Cherry MX Whites are soft click mushy nasty things.

I have a black widow ultimate, but I will either have a Filco with blues or a Leopold with blues soon. I am still conflicted about which to buy next. So whites feel like crap? I was curious about those as well.

Well, we'll see. Demik at Geekhack just did a group buy so I'll wait to see what others say.

Cherry White MX sure isn't monster clicky like Cherry Greens.

Stiff little beggars too.
