Of course I have to admit to having a fondness for Japanese maids in Akihabara.

I foresee more Geekhackers spending ridiculous amounts of money on keycaps in the near future:

I don't understand why ClickClack continues to sell on Geekhack if all the profit gouging truly upsets him.

95% of it is done by Geekhackers.

Some kind of loyalty to the origin(s) of him making the keys in the first place?

You'd have to ask him.

It's certainly not because of Site Administration. Geekhack lost all his pics and is down right now.

This is more appropriate given their continuing Security and Downtime problems.

I find this thread extremely intriguing. In a good way.

But as a person who has spent ~$3000 in computer cooling components in the last year and still uses a razer lycosa that was bought when I was 15 I will run away now.

Wow. This key sold for $250 at Geekhack. Those dudes are crazy.

Bought one of these a year ago for the shipping desk's computer back when I discovered the love and awesomeness of mech kybds and went on a buying spree for my business. OK, so we average about 10...

These popped up on my radar on Amazon for the stupid low price and I got two for work. One was definitely for the shipping station's computer. Other one? Well 1st was so cheap!! I might go find...

Bought the 1st one un-lit to see what I thought of Mech Keyboards after seeing all the nerds rave about them here in OCN. Wow! OK I get it now. You do gain an accuracy because the mind knows when...

Also, the cooling block was pretty flat. I'm a machinist on occasion and "pretty flat" isn't easy. I wet sand CPUs and coolers on glass; this cooler took 1/4 of the time the i7-2600k required to...

I wrote the initial info for this case, so that's pretty much my review. Compared to the TT Command Snow I just evaluated, if THIS case was ATX sized, I would rather buy this case than the TT...
