Thanks! I wanted the most Amiga keycap set I could find for this build since I'm using it with a Vampire V4. Turns out there aren't too many options out there. Sure some of the MT3 sets have the Amiga keycap, but nothing full on Amiga. When I saw that the guy behind the Checkmate cases had this keycap set made to sell along with his cases, I said why not and jumped at the chance to support an Amiga-centric business. They turned out much better than my expectations even if it doesn't have all the keys I need for the Q1.. I made it work, and using the Help key for the hard to find 1.75u right shift is just chef's kiss to me. ;)

Yeah that tank mouse is something else.. would have worked well in my build photo thats for sure. It is, without a doubt, the hot item to have in Amiga circles at the present moment (actually, probably a toss up between the new tank mouse and the PiStorm32 Lite as most coveted shiny object). Don't get me wrong, I LOOOOOOOOOOOOVE the tank mouse and everything it represents.. I own several original tank mice. Here's the thing though, they aren't the most ergonomic mouse to use. They can be downright painful to me at times. For that reason, I had to sit this one out on the new tank mouse.

It ain't all that impressive. Have you used a rollerball mouse before?

Amiga 1000! Yeah I’ve got one too, but mine doesn’t have the fancy orange cord.

Not sure what you mean, the spacing is standard. Maybe the backlighting is tripping you up. The only key with odd spacing is the right shift, because this set didn’t have a 1.75u shift key, so I stuck the Help key there. Gives it character, pun intended.
