erm.. i'm here to ask how can differentiate my keycaps level? such as R1,R2,R3,R4? Any link or picture to show me?

Underneath the keycap, there's a printing R1 - R4 inside.

Added on October 21, 2011, 1:05 amRegarding the Filco alignment issue:

My Filco 1 is problem free.

I blame the "improved pcb" from Filco.
It seems to me that anything in the world that says it's new and improved, it's probably rubbish and will turn out for the worst...

So the final verdict???? Kinda interested to hear your verdict since you're quite a skeptical reviewer who examine your subject meticulously.... laugh.gif  laugh.gif  laugh.gif
PS: Not saying that you're fussy, but i think it is essential for a reviewer to be a perfectionist as me myself is someone like that... just that i didnt go as thorough as you when examine the keyboard such as the alignment, the height... the printing on the keycaps... sweat.gif  sweat.gif
You can find one at Geekhack, there always got people selling, just that the price tag will put you back seriously... try imagine getting that one keycap can get you almost a new keyboard....  shocking.gif  shocking.gif  shocking.gif

I feel honored that people like my reviews. But kEazYc beats me in awesomeness.
I will post the review on Saturday. I'm pretty busy at work these days smile.gif

@vincent5195
The most infamous sales of the triple shot skull keycaps went for USD105. Other average above USD55.
Whereas Ripster is always boasting about the prototype ones which he claim are worth USD1500. Hahaha

All these issues started since MJ2...
Pinging...
Alignment...

My MJ2 tenkeyless is slightly misaligned but I can still fit the puller through whereas Ducky ESC is so near that it's nearly impossible to fit through.
Cooler Master Storm QuickFire is mildy misaligned. (by a hair or so) - perfectionist

Leopold will be your best option. High quality and have 18KRO over USB.

Even though others have mention, brands such as Filco, Leopold, Rosewill and Ducky weren't design with gaming in mind but they sure do the job very well.
Mechanical keyboard will out-perform and out-last all rubberdome gaming keyboard period.

To be honest, Logitech G15v2 softer (as if there aren't there)
*
Mechanical switches actuates at 2mm of it's 4mm travel.
If you bottom on any of the switches, it will be as stiff or stiffer than a rubber dome keyboard depending on switch's color.
If you find G15v2 softer, it means you are using mechanical keyboard wrongly.

POM are my personal favorites. Very smooth and nice to type on.
POM are common use as motorcycle slider/protector.
If POM can protect motorcycles from the road, I'm pretty sure it will perform well against wear and tear from our fingers.

The lasering is another issue though...

Hey Squarebox, quite a while didnt see you here.... busy?

Btw, did you get your hands on the Halloween ClackFactory keycaps from EK??? Damn... they're all gone by the time i discovered them 3 days later even though they limit the quantity to 1 keycap per customer...  cry.gif  cry.gif

Was recovering from a scratched cornea. Couldn't use my computer because staring at the screen hurts.

I didnt' managed to get any of the keycaps. They were on sale at 4am... Jack-O-Lantern was sold out in 15mins and the rest in 2 hours. I only woke up at 11am...
This was how I felt

yeah, i wanted to ask, since you do have POM Keycaps as collection, do you still know where can't we purchase POM Keycaps? i'm currently waiting for KBC, but hand kinda itchy. can't wait.

G80-3494 comes with POM keycaps which I love so much I bought two =X.
POM can be founded on black coloured Cherry keyboards which dont use double-shots.
