this is incorrect, they're actually ownage and the "ultra classic" version has a very modern footprint

I got elder postsman a unicomp for yosmas this year :ohdearsass: come vindicate my opinion, postsman

i have an ultra classic and it was very, very good until several keys stopped working

That sucks. Contact them? They do repairs on post-warranty boards (including original model Ms) for reasonable prices. Typically they'll repair and send you back your own board

the only true keyboards languish in international shipping for months before you receive them. also halfway through the switch type you asked for is no longer an option so you settle for something you didn't even want.

a friend of mine wants to get a pink filco majestouch (pictured here: http://www.keyboardco.com/keyboard/filco-majestouch-tactile-action-pink-usa-keyboard.asp) but it's out of stock across the universe. anybody know where else one might find a pink keyboard with pink keycaps and cherry mx brown switches?

edit: she's also willing to do a deep dive into keyboard construction so if any of you have resources on how to build a pink mechanical keyboard from scratch lmk

You could customize a WASD keyboard with all pink keys, but I don't know if you get color options on the bezel. You can pick any keyswitch you like with them.

the model M was an elegant weapon for a more civilized age

now that we have to sit in bullpens like loving animals, your coworkers will be sorely tempted to beat you to death with a model M, should you presume to use one in the open office
