Prolonged use of this keyboard effectively reduces typing fatigue, making it particularly suitable for high-efficiency work environments.

So tired of new keyboards. Glad there is a market for them, but with compact ones I tend to mistype or mishit keys gaming, and too large ones take up too much desk space, but I get why accountants want them etc.

Unless they are TKL with low profile (e.g. Keychron K1 V6) I have zero interest.

Exactly. I've seen a few boards that have that stupid wrist strap on them and just shake my head. Like, who the hell would have their keyboard dangling from their wrist, so it can knock shit over or bang into stuff as they walk?

REALLY, since when is a spray-painted anything make a fashion statement or sophisticated in any way ?

The ONLY thing it exudes IMO is cheapness & corner-cutting....

And besides that, I was always under the impression that most stuff made from CF has any desired dye/pigment incorporated into the fibers, Yes ?
