Does anyone know what it means by "Laser etched" on the keycaps? That does mean it has letters on it, right?

CraghawkThe "Black Cherry Profile Blank" and "Black Cherry Profile Laser Etched" keycaps are included with the kit. The LightCycle DSA keycaps are the option that increases your invoice price (+$55).
Differences in the keysets-
Material: LightCycle is ABS, blanks/laser etched are PBT (different types of plastic)
Legends: LightCycle have doubleshot legends, while laser etched = laser etched legends and blanks = no legends at all
Profile: LightCycle is DSA so they're flat from row to row (which makes for easier swapping around of keycaps, a necessity on fully progammable boards like this one). The blank and laser etched sets are Cherry profile, so they're sculpted into an "ergonomic" shape, like a "standard" keyboard (just lower profile than standard).
Color/design: This should be clear from the pictures. LightCycle is a custom keyset designed by @evangs (I believe), while the laser etched and blanks are just solid black.
