Keyboards are classified by the minimum though, and almost all keyboards that aren't NKRO are considered two-key-rollover. None of this will affect RTS play, but if you play FPS games at a high level it's probably a good idea to splurge for NKRO. * Of course, you are limited to 6 plus 4 modifier keys under USB. PS/2 is required for more than that, although there are very, very few situations where you need to be holding more than 6+4. | ||

I have thought about selling it and getting browns, but I'm hoping this will only strengthen my left hand for long games so that I'll be able to keep my 200 apm on another keyboard. Might serve as a useful training tool, i dunno just a thought. | ||

This is typed on Cherry Blue btw, feel great. It's more like pressing a switch than pecking at a key. Only a tad noisy, will get browns later down but this one was inexpensive :-) | ||

Some folk on geekhack.org are ordering replacement keysets from signature plastics. You could either jump on geekhack's next shipment or try giving signature plastics a ring. I'm not sure if they sell individual keysets, however. http://www.keycapsdirect.com | ||

There you go... should be great considering future ordering :-) | ||

There you go... should be great considering future ordering :-) Ah, well I guess the bright side is that it is less than ordering a fresh keyboard if you went on it by yourself. =) Here's links to the geekhack distribution threads if you wanted to jump on those. Round one (completed): http://geekhack.org/showthread.php?t=11998 Round two (planning): http://geekhack.org/showthread.php?t=12682 It's tempting, but since I already busted a financial nut ordering my filco, I'll probably have to wait a while before I consider ordering custom keys for it. | ||
