I’m genuinely just confused what the hype is with HHKB. It sounds just like a membrane but for 250 dollars. What the hell is the hype about?

      That’s what I did. Lucky to have someone to sell it to me.

      Leopold is much sturdier and also has the nice typing feel. I don’t care it’s heavier, I prefer it that way.

      I could not get used to HHKB’s lack of ability to remap capslock (ctrl on that board) to escape. Years of muscle memory I did not want to change. There is no good position for CTRL if you put ESC there. Also arrow keys with modifier I found bit hard to use.

      Leopold has regular capslock which I remapped. Also has arrow keys. I do miss the old position of backspace, that is now bit further. And sometimes wish CTRL was bit higher. Overall very happy that I switched and an no longer looking for another keyboard.
