I have a Focus 2001 with white alps that works great on my PS2 port, but it does not work with the Belkin usb adapter (which has the same internals as the blue cube) I also got a PCI PS2 port adapter, and that behaved the same way -- the lights flashed, but nothing happened when I hit the keys.

Is there really interest in Focus FK 2001 boards with the complicated white alps? I picked up one at a local center with it's original box and dust cover (it's a UK model but I am in the US) it's got a touch of age showing on it, but it's all in working order. GeekHack lists them as 50-100 on eBay, ...

I would like one for my iPhone or if I get an IPad in the future. Also if I get around to building that HTTPC in the living room, a mechanical board that can stay on the couch table would be cool...

I have only had white alps and MX browns, and I am going to go with the browns, because the white alps are a bit to bouncy for me. I like the noisiness of the clicky switches, but I can understand not liking it when others can hear them.

reds would be very similar to browns as far as actuation force, but with no tactile "bump" in them. they are both going to be pretty soft (in comparison to blacks, blues and a model M) and similar noise levels to each other. with the browns you will get some feedback before bottoming out, and the re...

The thunderbolt thing seems like it's going to be awesome for HD video editing (which can be done real time on external sources now without transfering). You can also use it to daisy chain up to 10 devices, like monitors. The adoption of this port will likely be slow, as it's going to take over for ...
