Lately, I’ve been researching a little on mechanical keyboards. I thought, well, since I’m going back into writing, might as well get something writing (typing) related to give me greater motivation. 

The click-ity sound of mech keyboards will definitely be fun. I remember how when I was young, I used to love typing on our old 2000s computer because of the sound. I remember typing my first story about some mouse character that was on my pencil case. 

I don’t know why I never quite realised how writing was my passion. It has been what I’ve done all my life since 5. I loved writing… I just never got serious enough…

Anyways, so mechanical keyboards.

I would love to get one but I’m a travel minimalist. I don’t like to carry too much around. When I go out, I tend to bring my ipad, and if I want to write, I need a keyboard. A mechanical keyboard, regardless of the number of keys, maybe just a tad inconvenient. The height of the keys, the many reasons why people get mechanical keyboards, might be a con for a travel minimalist like me…

But the writer in me would have loved the longer key travel. I’m quite sick of membrane keys. 

Logically, economically and realistically, a membrane keyboard (k380) is the best option for me. Mechanical keyboards (looking at 68 keys), the only pro would be the ‘coolness’ of typing. 

This is a matter of heart over mind HAHAHHA. My heart wants the mech, my mind says no :’’)

I guess, I’ll consider a little more. 

Au revoir!
