    What's a Model M like? I want one pretty badly but as far as I can recall I haven't even touched one.

    The keys feel a lot heavier than a standard rubberdome keyboard, and it feels much more tactical than any other keyboard I've typed on. I definitely prefer typing on my Model M, and I won't go back to a rubberdome keyboard. Also, the mechanical sounding click every time you press a key is orgasmic. :D

    Sounds shockingly American.

    Still would take this though.

    If you ever had them all running at once your room looks like it would be 450F.

    I have been using w8 since launch. No issues with start at all. I like it and genuinely miss it in 10. Let go off the obsolescence that was a start button I rarely ever used.

    Pls. 1987 IBM

    They're awesome. Buckling springs are some of the heaviest switches around. I like heavy keys.

    Although I would like a backlit keyboard. At some point I might have to choose between Buckling Springs or backlight. The RGB lighting on the Logitech G910 looks so good, I'd totally buy it if it didn't have horrible keycaps.

    If you want fancy lighting the corsair rgb keyboards are as fancy as it gets with high end switches. Otherwise the new ducky shine offers two tone leds with cherry mx switches.

    That's why I felt that it seemed justified, but still a bit unneeded.

    I resumed practicing the song and it's all good now. I won't back out on my end of the deal now. :p

    I got hollered at for chucking an empty computer case into the scrap metal bin at the local dump. Guy came running over shouting about how domestic electricals go in another bin, brilliant, but its an empty *METAL* case with nothing inside. He ignored me, pulled it out, realised its an empty metal casing and threw it back in.

    They're 1.5GB. Still, I'm 512 meg up from what I currently have. Thing is, a second 7850 is a second 7850. These Hydro Coppers are going to turn into themselves, a case, custom watercooling, and a PSU. I just don't think that the performance difference is worth $210 turning into almost $450.
