DSI Modular Keyboard for Mac - Black

[pitap]

I am not sure if this is new, or if I am posting it in the right section, but I couldn't help sharing the joy

 

I have been looking for mechanical switch keyboard for mac for some time now. I got interested in mechanical keyboard when I first saw some website introducing the Filco Majestouch line. Simple yet very elegant looking. And I myself being geekier and geekier everyday, my thirst for getting one of those keyboards has never been stronger. I know there are people who rather use the good old Apple Extended keyboard or the IBM, I simply can't swallow the look of it. Tactile pro seemed to be a good choice except there are some known circuit design flaws. Just today while casually looking through some available keyboards I found this DSI branded keyboard on ebay (one of their online store), I couldn't help it but click "buy it now" right the way. I think they just introduced the black version lately because I could only find white version on their product website.

 

 

here is the search result of the keyboard

The DSI Modular Keyboard comes in two versions: One with blue cherry switch and one with brown cherry switch. For those who hate num pads this is one of the best choice for you (or you can buy an additional num pad modular), especially if you are a hackintosh builder having your rig and monitor black and would like to match the color. It also comes with 3 USB 2.0 plorts that can be powered by additional power adapter for people whould like to plug in power hungry devices. The bellow are some of the official picture of the keyboard. If you guys are interested I will take some photos when it arrives and maybe write a little review of it.

 

Thank you for your time checking this post out!
