Stuart Langridgemade the mistake of thinking that I could do with a new keyboard, and so reading stuff online about it. This is useless; everyone who talks about keyboards is a nutter about them. It's like trying to ask about new headphones for your bus trip on audiophile forums or something.
what I really need to do is go to a shop and just try typing on a bunch of keyboards, but there aren't shops like that in the city centre, more's the pity
Matthew@sil You can manage Highgate for Curry’s shurely? Nice walk through Highgate Park, see rust massive St Alban church and the central mosque. Or CEX on bull street maybe?
@dracos there’s a Curry’s there? Neat, I didn’t know that. That could be the answer! Nice one, thank you!
Anton Piatek@sil @dracos I found the range in curry's really limited. You're right, they're all fanatics and even if you've a firm factor in mind there's still loads. Worse if you're OK with US layouts as there's a million custom ones out there, which may be great for choice of keys (Cherry MX) but impossible to try unless you know someone with that set
Peter Oliver@sil In the mechanical department they'll probably "only" have so-called red switches, but at least you can rule them in/out.
