    How do you connect it to your computer? I have a big old keyboard but it’s from before there were PS2 ports so I don’t know what to do with it.

      Nah, fuck that shape. Look what they did to my boy Right Shift. I’m glad L-shaped Enter keys died out in the mid 90s.

        That’s sadly common with SKCM Alps switches. You can clean them out, but it suuuucks to do a full keyboard of them.

          Yeah. I also heard of waxing Alps switches to decrease stiction. Sucks, because otherwise, I think the switches feel really nice.

          Still, though, nothing beats a Model F, although I haven’t used a beamspring, so maybe one of those with a solenoid.
