Snagged a hybrid role in commercial lending and my old Das Keyboard I was using at home had some broken switches (including the numpad + which I need frequently). Used some of my cashed out vacation time from leaving my old job to make the upgrade.

Keychron Q5 Pro
-
Gateron Milky Yellow Pro Switches
-
KBDiy GMK Shoko Clones (going to upgrade when the time is right but needed something for now) - Been eyeing some Osume Dusks but they’re out of stock.

Bell’s Oberon Eclipse beer which oddly ended up matching the caps that came today.
https://a.aliexpress.com/_msFKZTe - Here’s the link if interested. They do have some slight flaws where the right arrow seems slightly off. I can post a close up if wanted. But for under $20. They got here in 10 days too.
Doesn’t look off so much as all the arrows look like they’re biased to the left side of the keys. Unless you mean something else?
Good looking keyboard though!
The right key just seems to be sitting up higher or it doesn’t come down as low.

Oh I see it. Yea that’s weird.
Yeah. It’s not perfect but is it the end of the world? Nope. Especially at $18 and change for the set just to have something to have the board up and running. Now I can be patient when looking for keycaps and find the ones that I want. I really like the looks of the Osume Dusk keys but also really digging the blue color scheme here so we’ll see.
That’s such good value. ISO keys and split spacebar keys that I would need too. Thanks.
Yeah. That was my thinking. Since a lot of keycaps are group buys or out of stock, I wanted something that looks good and is serviceable for now until I can figure out the true end game.
