New keyboard question

DXP55 · 20 Jan 2015 at 15:16

I have finally decided to treat myself to a Mechanical keyboard -- Going down the Ducky and Corsair boards on OC shop I notice the @ sign is on the number two key - That I don't think I could get used to.

So are all mechanical boards the same. ?

Thanks

All the Ducky images we use are US layout, but all the keyboards OCUK stock are UK layout so the @ will be in the correct place on the actual keyboard

Thanks for that - might just take a ride tomorrow to the OCUK shop.

After checking out all Keyboards I have decided to get a TKL board - for simple reason I have never used the keyboard numbers pad and I am also tight for space on keyboard shelf which slides under main desktop.

I have also decided I need the Brown switch's or at a push red ones - Problem is ocuk are out of stock on the Ducky TKL keypads in Brown - other ones that are in frame is Corsair and ocuk own Tech Labs keyboard.

I am not a gamer but do want a nice action keyboard

So does anyone know if ocuk shop has mechanical keyboards on display or will they open one for me to try before buy - I am obviously going over to Stoke to buy one but will now put it off till they get new stock of Ducky keyboards.
