We’re back! And today with a small mechanical keyboards history lesson: the beginnings of the 60% keyboard layout and it’s iterations from the Apple M0110 in 80’s, through the HHKB Professional in the late 90's and early 2000’s, all the way to the popular KBC Poker and KBT Pure from @vortexkeyboard in the 2010’s.
While at it, I also modded my first modern production #MechanicalKeyboard: the metal encased KBTalking Pure Limited Edition (which I bought in early 2013) to update it for today’s use in my mobile setup (with @ZealPC switches and @txkeyboardinc.1211stabs).
