Off topic, but does anybody know how to change Firefox browser's default chinese font to the ones we get back in school exams, you know fuller characters instead of these skinny ones. Really hurt my reading speed and eyes when reading those chinese fonts. sweat.gif

While on topic, Filco keyboards seem pretty standard but the downside is that they use Pad Printing keys, no extra buttons and I don't see them selling here in Malaysia. So I think the price will be the same, if not more expensive than Ducky's?

I dont get what is full or skinny? do you mean font? or the trad / simplified chinese

Look here : http://www.clearchinese.com/resources/fonts.htm

I prefer fonts like 汉鼎简楷体.

Meanwhile, does anybody know anybody selling the Scorpius M10, seems nice and cheap. Though reportedly there are quality issues but I heard it was resolved in the newer batches.

Here is a review of the Scorpius M10

http://geekhack.org/showwiki.php?title=Island:5364
Just don't expect it to be in the same league as Filco, Das, and Ducky doh.gif

Seems like it is a decent keyboard, but doesn't have that 'special' feel to it. I have time to make my decision so I plan to wait till Razer BW is here, get a try how a cherry blue feels like, then proceed to buy the keyboard that suits me best.

Frankly I don't feel secure buying a few hundred bucks item without even a hinch how it feels.

Hm there is an interesting thing i found out.

Seems usb can do full nkro after all for certain keyboards.
There is already stock of the Razer Black Widow Ultimate in Malaysia.

http://www.modernopc.com/store/index.php?m...roducts_id=2216
The keyboard box has a small gap in it so you can push the keys. So if you can visit their shop, you can try out the buttons.

Moderno doesn't have the stock in hand yet. They only updated the website in anticipation for its arrival.

It's like buying a speaker based on review without testing it.. worse is that speaker is event harder to visualise based on text writing

Well if anyones interested, i posted a Ducky 9008 comparison against the Filco Majestouch.

http://geekhack.org/showthread.php?t=12284
A few Singaporeans own both the Ducky 9008 and Filco Majestouch. So it's convenient for everyone else to decide based on the facts which they prefer. Of course some of it is subjective, and people won't know which until they try in person. However it's safe to say you will have enough info to make a better informed decision which you would like :]

Seems like Filco has a slightly better overall typing quality but Ducky has extra qualities to consider like Function keys, price, key caps. I heard nobody knows Filco's key caps material, PBT or ABS.

I kinda agree we have a Mechanical Keyboard thread. There may be people with mechs but not necessarily gaming ones.

Hm i wonder ..... whether we should start a mechanical keyboard club ? The thread says gaming keyboard, but the irony is, gaming keyboards by logitech are all rubber domes which cost just as much

So if you ask me, mechanical black cherry keyboards are better for gaming. Browns are for a balance between gaming and typing. Blues are for people who like clicky.

Thats not to say that rubber dome keyboards are useless, as i found the LCD on my G15 slightly useful for Ventrilo as i can see who is talkin on the vent without alt tabbing. But for a better typing experience, mechanical is the way to go :]

I wanna try those damn cherry brown.
Yea I think we should start a mechanical keyboard thread, it seems that mechanical keyboards took over this thread.

Funny thing is, I'm at around 80-100WPM with my rubber dome Logitech Internet Pro keyboard.

Wonder what wonders will the mechanical keyboard give me... hmmm...

I don't think it will increase my WPM that much but it certainly does help in the feel and comfort department. I definitely HATE the Shift key on my keyboard.
Btw, the S,N and M key are 100% gone after 4 years of use. The K,A,L are coming off soon too. Almost all of my alphabet keys and the spacebar are now shiny.
