How is the IBM Model M?
Is it comfy?
Good for typing?
Good for gaming?
What's good and bad about it, and what is everyone's opinion on it?
hello placebofriends
abandon the topre meme, come back to mx browns.
>b-but muh clears
hhkb general?
>>52416361
>How is the IBM Model M?
A great board.
>Is it comfy?
Very. The sound and feel of buckling springs is the best.
>Good for typing?
Absolutely.
>Good for gaming?
Less than ideal. Has some rollover issues. Never came up when I was using it, but depending on the game it could be a big issues.
>What's good and bad about it, and what is everyone's opinion on it?
It is fucking GIGANTIC. So much extra unused space on the case it is annoying. Lack of customization options like keycaps/cases too.
Not to mention the number of available layouts is limited.
>>52416403
>Is it comfy?
no
>Good for typing?
no
>Good for gaming?
no

stop convincing people to buy overpriced shit.
>>52416407
>flipped spacebar
>calling others out on placebo
>>52416413
This.
This mirrors my exact opinion on the model M. It really is a meme for kids who like to make maximum noise.
It's not a good keyboard.
>>52416427
it's free and feels nice to me, what's the problem?
flipped spacebar is not really comparable to topres.
Is the hhkb the meme of the week now?
>>52416496
>have light pointed at keyboard
>blank keys
>a random towel as a poor mans wrist rest
Disgusting.
>>52416515
This has been going on for more than a week.
>>52416523
I like how you got the joke, but a towel is pretty much the best wrist rest you can get. I once had a griffiti wrist rest which I gave up on after two days in favor of the towel.
You can clean it, you can fold it to adjust the height, and it looks for nicer than some slab of silicone.
>inb4 paying 40 bucks for a slab of wood
>>52416414
>People buy the K70 with blues
Fucking disgusting.
I have a K95, anyone else find that some of the colors when using the whole array of colors are a bit gross-looking?
>>52416403
There's absolutely no reason to get one unless you're a collector or just can't get over your nostalgia for IBM stuff.
If you absolutely must have buckling springs, just get a unicomp, they're way cheaper and "modernized" enough to work with newer hardware.
Still, you're better off getting a nice cherry MX board with greens if you really want that much acctuation pressure. Model M's take almost the same amount of pressure as MX green switches, so they're comparable in that sense, but they feel totally different, and they sound different too.
This is what the Model M sounds like:

welcome back, we made it a total of 11 minutes before the hhkb memespammers got here.
Honest opinion on CM Quickfire, brown switches, tenkeyless/backlight-free version?
Seems inexpensive and alright. If I replaced the caps, it might even look good.
>>52416425
We're helping people buy quality.
>>52416581
I actually feel angry listening to that video of the Model M when he starts typing with it.
I'd be so fucking mad if I had to listen to him type on that obnoxious piece of shit constantly. I'd just rip it out of the computer and murder him with it.
>>52416607
which version? there is the rapid, tk, stealth, etc.
assuming you're talking about the rapid it's pretty good really, but a lot of people will reccomend you a kul es-87 instead since it's nearly the same layout with a lot higher build quality. Honestly the price difference probably isn't justified.
>>52416623
it's one of the most expensive stock keyboard on the market.
it's like recommending a ferrari to everyone looking for their first car.
>>52416667
>HHKB is to keyboards what ferrari is to cars
Holy shit, I'm laughing so hard.
>>52416703
what would you compare it to? obviously someone can buy a custom car that will cost a lot more than a ferrari and would probably be a better car, but that's not on the open market.
there are a lot more expensive keyboards if you really want to meme it up with group buys and expensive pcb/cases, but hhkb is expensive as fuck for someone looking for a decent keyboard.

>>52416943
Thanks anon I love you too.
Keyboards are nice and I'm quite certain there's a fair amount of people here who have cool keyboards that look cool. I want those people to post pictures because I like to look at pictures of cool stuff. What's wrong with that?
Be honest.
How many of you HHKB owners also own a vape?
I'll know if you're lying to me.

I occasionally smoke weed and I tried cocaine tho.
>>52416978
Heh, I was actually thinking of that keyboard of yours when I wrote that post.
And I'd love to see more of that keyboard, especially without the caps. Are those your final caps or are you waiting for something (you had some quite interesting caps in mind if I remember correctly).
>>52416978
how can you sleep at night knowing you have two dead leds?
I own a K70 non-rgb with cherry reds.
It does the job, however, I regret spending so much. When it seems the money could of been spent better.

I used to smoke, then I tried vaping for some time and went back to smoking.

I was actually pleasantly surprised when I found that my Gateron set had an extra 1.75 cap. Thought I'd have to use a 1.25 or something.
>>52417025
Gateron ghost white.
>>52417017
Not quite.
Weed is to the drug world what cola is to beverages. It's practically as normal as tobacco cigarettes at this point.
The fedora of the drug world would be shrooms. Everyone I've ever met who has ever done shrooms thinks it's some kind of spiritual awakening and they've achieved fucking enlightenment. It's really obnoxious.
>this many people that can't buy the phenomenal keyboard that is the hhkb

I have a 2u shift, but no 1.75
Deep Space is supposed to get a restock soon, so I am hoping I can snag an adapter set. Would come with labeled 1u hyper, super, and meta keys too.
>>52417059

Fug, that was me when I was a teenager. Thought it was so profound and everybody needed to try this shit. Still fun though.
>>52417059
How's it like for navigating a desktop environment with the touchpad?
>>52417071
It supports directinput by default.
You can use third party programs to make it act as an xinput device.

>>52417274
Sorry if this is a downer, but I have always found those unusable. The plastic isn't nearly rigid enough, so the whole thing ends up bending and shaking when you type on it.
What layout is that? Never seen one like it before.
>>52417050
How do people create these custom keyboard layouts? Like what website or software do I use?
>>52417054
Pfft, I've done shrooms and while they were fun, they weren't nearly as trippy as I thought they would be. Trippiest thing I experienced was some time dilation, and I wouldn't say I had a "spiritual awakening" from them. I became little bit more open-minded about things afterwards, but that's about it. It's brain candy, not a gateway to an alternate dimension.

>>52417618
it is less usable than a standard sized keyboard or a tkl.
it's an expensive manchild toy for people who want to pretend to be hackers.
>>52417854
What exactly makes it less useable?
I'm having no problems typing with mine.
>>52417205
This can be said for anything. Do you honestly think that the HHKB costs a lot of money to produce? The answer is no. The only difference is that it's easier for a normal person to make a wood slab than a keyboard. But the point still remains.
>>52416575
ugh I tried that keyboard at bestbuy and I wanted to shoot myself. I really hated the feel of that keyboard. However, if you like it then thats all on your but I just know that there is no way that I could ever buy that thing

Topre = Rubberdome =/= Mechanical
Get over it you cunts, you paid $200 for a keyboard that's just rubberdome with some plastic parts in it that makes them noisy.
>>52418093
I ... actually kinda like this
>>52418003
>compromises just for the sake of being smaller
I'm fine with those compromises. I just about never used the function row or the tenkey on my previous keyboard. I never use the pageup, pagedown keys either. The only thing I use on a somewhat frequent basis are the arrow keys, which are conveniently located near the function key so I still only need one and hand to use them, but I actually have to move that hand less.
Seems perfectly functional to me.
I'm glad to have a smaller keyboard and have no qualms putting keys that I never use on a function layer. It may not suit your needs, but it suits mine perfectly fine, which is why I bought this keyboard.
What's your point?
>>52418025
We wouldn't appear half as obnoxious if other people discussed and posted pictures of their keyboards and shit. That'd be really cool actually.

3.

5.

6.
Music. to lower in pitch.
Literally copied from a dictionary.
>>52418293
>to press down
That's exactly what I'm talking about. You mechanically (go look this word up next) press down the keys on your keyboard.
I don't know what made you think of pulling them back up.
>>52418315
You press down on membranes too anon.
>>52418326
That's my exact point you idiot.
Any keyboard that requires you to press down in order to have it do something (usually produce a letter on your screen) is mechanical by definition.
I can't decide between cherry mx red, blue, or brown for my next keyboard. It will be my first mechanical keyboard so I don't know what they feel like. What do you suggest.
>>52418351
I suggest getting a switch tester.
>>52418351

so I'd say blue.

try them out at a store first.
>>52418376
>Spring Operated Keyboards General?
but that would cut out topre!
oh wait
>>52418376
Rubber domes are springs too.
You could try renaming it "physical contact circuit closing switches that are not membranes keyboards general", that'd exclude Topre and membrane keyboards. And the model M.
http://matt3o.com/granite-elven-kit-explained/
>>52418347
Well, technically that's correct. But we're talking about Mechanical keyboards here.
>Mechanical-switch keyboards use separate complete switches underneath every key. Each switch is composed of a base, a spring, and a stem. Depending on the shape of the stem, such keyboards have varying actuation and travel distance. Depending on the resistance of the spring, the key requires different amounts of pressure to actuate. Mechanical keyboards allow for the removal and replacement of keycaps.
That's the definiton of mechanical keyboards.
>Topre switches are a electrostatic capacitive non-contact keyboard switch designed by Japan's Topre Corporation.
This is the descritption of topre.
>>52418393
>>52418402
Why don't we have a Cherry MX + clones keyboard general, Buckling Spring keyboard general, Alps + clones keyboard general and Hybrid Switch keyboard general seperately :^)
>>52418421

>excluding Topre

>>52416361
I just got a ducky zero. Awesome board, just a durable plank full of mx blues, n key rollover, and no bullshit
>>52418485
And it uses a membrane for actuation.
Rubber domes are also springs, most membrane keyboards also have removable keycaps (which usually also compromise the slider).
>>52418518

>>52418520
Removable keycaps don't make a keyboard mechanical. A mechanical keyboard with non-removable keycaps is still a mechanical keyboard. As for rubber domes being springs, they technically do the same thins as springs, but the term spring is mostly used to describe helical springs. Helical springs are made out of metal.

Are the keycaps ABS Doubleshot or lasered PBT?
Nice find.
>>52418347
If a spring provides the main resistence for the switch to actuate, its mechanical. If it doesnt, its not.
Mechanical:
Cherry
Alps
Buckling Springs
Foam & Foil
Spring over membrane
etc
etc
NOT Mechanical:
Rubber dome
Topre
Scissor Switch
Apple butterfly
Touchscreen
Those nasty rubber keyboards on the Surface
etc etc
>>52419078
I'm not sure. The keycaps seem to be printed on.
The case is made of PBT which I think is the reason why it didn't yellowed.
The seller sold 5 of these for 20€ with 7€ or 8€ shipping, also other cherry keyboards (G81 and G83) for the same price which don't seem to sell well.
The reason for this choice was that I own a TRS-80 Model 100 for a year with it's linear ALPS keyboard and typing on that one is fun compared to any other rubberdome kbd that I used in my life.
>>52417205
it's not even real wood! i could pick an actual plank, varnish it and make it real.
hey next time i'll do this, a woodern keyboard! ... but maybe not with this base, something semi mechanical instead.

Am I'm being dense or does it not say how to save the modified settings?
Doing FN+F9 again just cancels the mode and doing it again the settings have reverted.

>Everyone I've ever met who has ever done shrooms thinks it's some kind of spiritual awakening and they've achieved fucking enlightenment. It's really obnoxious.
Studies have shown that shrooms permanently alter your mind to make you more open-minded and accepting of new ideas.
Maybe not a spiritual awakening, but it's something.
>>52419635
For a white keyboard it's pretty handsome. The numpad's kind of weird.
Is HP trying to seduce keyboard enthusiasts?
>>52423612
Honestly novatouch.

Indeed, that's a C1405A from HP. a workstation keyboard released in 1987, it's a rubber dome with springs. There's a few sold as-is for a hundred dollars on eBay. Not sure about the condition.
is around $45 decent for a Razer BlackWidow Tournament Edition 'Stealth' keyboard?
I know Razer is hated here, but I hear their "orange" switches are comparable to MX Reds and that it's a fairly decent keyboard, and I'm really eager to pick up a cheap red switch keyboard without a numberpad.

The real autists aren't shrooms, they're people like this.
>>52424505
halp please.
>>52424505
Honestly, yes. Reds aren't worth spending that much money on.They're nice, but for the same money, I'd rather get clears, greens, or even topres. They just don't feel all that different than the cheap non-mechanical shit.
And Razer isn't as bad as people say. Sure, in general they're still low/shit tier, but they're also pretty affordable if you're smart about it.

My bad, I forgot that the target audience of this place is idiots like you.
>>52424906
So you're saying Reds are just shit basically? I heard they feel really nice, particularly for FPS games which I play occasionally.
I'm open to trying a different switch (this will be my first mechanical), all I really want to insist on is it be a "compact" keyboard with no numpad.
And yes Ive heard keyboards are about the only thing Razer does right. They're about to have a 50% off sale in about 3 hours.
>>52424968
Perhap >>>/reddit/ is a more suitable place for fine, sophisticated and open minded gentlemen like you
>>52425006
Razer doesn't do anything right, especially not keyboards.
That being said, 45 bucks for a mechanical is a really good deal. I already have two keyboards and I'd still buy that.
You can probably get the same price out of reselling it later at some point anyway.
>>52425006
Reds are godlike for light typers and gamers who need to double tap keys a lot because there's no resistance to a swift motion of buttery smoothness
Clears and greens are excellent as well, but red is the undisputed king of linear switches
>>52425052
Its actually $40 but I dont know what the shipping will be. Will probably kill the deal
Are there any compact mechanicals that sell for around $50?
how low do the prices go on some sales? I havent researched the prices on these things lately.
Has anyone here used Razer's Orange switches and can compare them to any specific Cherry MX make?
>>52425138
Would reds make good betas for my clear board?
I like typing on clears, but they're too heavy for my pinkies.
>>52425169
>Are there any compact mechanicals that sell for around $50?
No.
Entry level boards that are considered decent start at around 70 bucks. You're hardly going to find a better deal than that razer thing right now.
>>52425220
Monoprice has a keyboard with reds or blues for $50, but it's full-sized
>>52425138
I type and bottom out always and reds are god send
>>52425299
I'm fairly certain that despite razer being shit, it will still beat that monoprice keyboard.
Entry level is considered a lolita or a cooler master at around 70 bucks. The only report I've ever heard of those monprice keyboards is that one of them shorted out on someone.
I'm not telling you that razer is good, but at that price point it's more than acceptable.

Comes in tomorrow anyone got a line on some good backlit compatible PBT keycaps? All I can seem to find are the vortex ones withe the shitty 1-0 symbols lit up.
>>52425217
Reds and clears are totally different m8
It's like comparing a lightweight skeletonized racegun in pistol caliber to a sturdy, heavy but reliable rifle in 7.62
>>52425438
Tough luck son. Only vortex makes backlight compatible PBT caps

Once I get my return on my keyboard that was broken when opened I'm planning on buying a Majestouch 2 with mx blues. Anyone have experience with this kb and/or recommend it?
>>52425398
Where can you buy a Lolita keyboard? I can't seem to find any place still selling them
would a tkl be better than a 60% if I'm never going to move it from my desk at home?
trying to decide between hhkb/real force/novatouch
Just got this one, enjoying it so far.
