such as?

1. non-LED boards - mainstream consumers categorize LED backlit keyboard as premium stuff

2. non-gaming brand - Razer, Logitech G, Steelseries, or whatsoever brands that promote cherry MX switch as holy switch of gaming

3. plain design - most of the people presume flashy design as something unique and different from regular stuff

4. make it look vintage - so they think it's another grandpa era keyboard

as a small blog reviewer in Malaysia is kinda sad, all I get is the chance to molest the keyboard, take picture and write some sort of molest report.

no free product, only free experience

For me, I want the chance to disassemble them.

I agree with you, I wanted to do all sort of things to the product so that I have in depth review on it...

just sad I'm pretty much reviewing the using experience instead of product quality

You still have to return them one ah? That's quite sad oh.... do service for free.
I get the chance to disassemble them! Haha. This is when I can learn to desolder liao. : p
It's sad that you're not here, I can introduce you, otherwise.. I don't think they're interested to ship something so far to Malaysia..

Yes, the product need to be returned within a time frame. However, some of them do offer to sell me the review sample at discounted price, but mehhh

I don't trust cyber clean tho.. I'm using the most basic method - remove all caps, and remove the dust with soft paint brush

Ya. kimchi 27" LCD best.
I got 2 X 27" now. Crossroad (kimchi brand) and Dell Ultrasharp U2713HM. The kimchi is my main LCD now.
Do have some problem with the backlight before. But sorted out by seller send me the driver board. I change myself without send back the whole LCD.

You should really gest Ergodox. Best keyboard compare to my Kinesis Advantage, Matron 3D AND HHKB type-2
*
I know it is such a waste to let go the chance of getting the ErgoDox, but for now, I got more keyboards than I could use, and I need some other thing before the keyboard. eg: a 2nd monitor for multitasking or tablet for daily news and media consumption

Hi mech kb fans,

I'm looking to join the club - considering these few:
Ducky Shine 3
Das Keyboard Professional Model S
Logitech G710+
Corsair Vengeance K70

I do 50/50 typing/gaming - so I'm going for MX Brown keys for each. Any advise/personal recommendation based on your experience?

Seems Corsair is only available in UK layout here in Malaysia (distributor's choice) - so that 100% rules it out for me - I'll die before switching away from NA/US layout.

eh, I didn't know that Corsair is in UK layout in marehsiah

The latest gen of Keycool had no spacebar problem, the spacebar is fully compatible.

But the grey one I said above, may be old stock, hence I can't promise it will be having the latest spacebar.

But since you had made your purchase, I will just said "Enjoy your feeling" icon_idea.gif

wow... this actually make me want to buy one also..
