I love the retro look, but sadly at that price way out of my league.

I know limited runs cost more to produce but I'm honestly struggling to see what's so special about this keyboard to warrant the price.

Plenty of other keyboards offer up smaller form factors and changeable keycaps, most software has keyboard shortcuts already so I don't really see a need for that part either.

I thought the usb fittings on the back allowed for switching between devices but nope, just a hub on each side, so they missed a trick there imo.
