And R1 in the bottom row? Must be painful

This looks so weird to me, what typing speed do you get on this kind of board?

Liked having a landmark key for wasd.

For me it's actually pretty great. I use shortcuts in photoshop and illustrator a lot so my fingers usually rest down there while I'm working. And then while typing I really don't notice it, usually palm ctrl anyway.

Ohhh that makes perfect sense now!

Never ran a typing test but I'd moved from a Preonic to this. Preonic was my first kb build so that took me a minute to get used to ortho and then from that to this it took me a minute to get used to the movement of mods back to the side instead of in the center (put mods in center of Preonic for fun) but yeah, I'm back to normal typing speeds. This has been my daily since just after quarantine was lifted I think. I love it. Only reason I'm done with it is I'm in the middle of a hubris-minibaen restoration build. Cleaned up the pcb and fixed some broken traces. Just waiting for red C3 Equalz stabs to match my borsas and I'll be ready to finish.

I see, yes. Not really much of a gamer here, so never thought of that.

Why the R2 novelty on W? Just curious.
