No this isn't an ad. Fuck their keyboards and their shitty software and horrific customer support

I will never give up my 1989 Model M..

Never ever. But if you do, give it to me.

I too once held to that ideal, but after typing almost exclusively on Model M keyboards for 40+hrs a week (Unix Sysadmin + gamer ) for 30+yrs I started to feel some strain in my fingers and hands.

About a year ago I switched to the SS Apex Pro with adjustable magnetic switches and I've been pretty happy with it so far. Yeah the software is kind of stupid but the actuation points can be adjusted and saved into several different profiles from the keyboard without the software, so I've been pretty happy with it so far.
