Advantage2 KB600

I'm not handy with the soldering iron. So I sent it off to someone who is, Upgrade Keyboards, which is an authorized partner with Kinesis.

Many people here go below 40 keys, even for 32, abandoning number row, modifier and control keys on alpha layer; but it’s not the way for you if you prioritize gaming. Stick to 50-60 keys, there are a lot of keyboards in that range with 4x6 + 3 keys per half. I prefer old-fashioned key well column s
