if you have the cash to spare - yes. amazing keyboard. never really typed on anything like it before; and it feels mega-responsive in gaming.

I set my hands on these two, rather generic looking units today:

25,90€ a piece.
The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP

They are both identical.

EDIT: Upon further inspection, they have, while being quite well-designed otherwise, rather cheap capacitors (TEAPO), and a sleeve bearing Yate Loon fan. While I'm not complaining, if anybody else is going to purchase one of these units, I wouldn't recommend it unless you're willing to modify them; in this configuration, they will not live very long.

only criticism of this mechanical keyboard is... if you're going to be doing a lot of typing and the keys aren't etched, buy some isoprop 99% to wipe away the dirt. because otherwise the keys 'fade' pretty fast. very minor criticism.

Of course.

It was supposed to be broken. Aside from about a kilogram of dust in the cooler, I haven't found anything wrong with it.

EDIT: Holy mother of god. Why are people paying over $500 for these on Ebay?

Probably. I'm gonna play around with it for a while, though. This thing is way more usable than the 1.8GHz, single-CPU Imac I had a while back.

You either buy them online or not at all.
