Drop Mech Keys Meetup Recap - Thanks for Visiting!
As you may have seen, we just hosted our first meetup in quite a while here at Drop HQ (Corsair HQ, but they seem to like us enough :) )! It was a blast to get to meet so many enthusiasts local to the bay area—it had been 10 years since I was last hanging out with keyboard nerds in the bay, at KeyCon 2014. We had a great time hosting everyone at the offices, checking out all the very nice boards y'all brought, and sharing some of our own projects/spaces! I knew it would be fun to host in the Game Room when I first saw it in person, but seeing it come to fruition was still so cool. Alright, I'll stop blabbering on now. xD Picture time! (Oh, real quick - there will be more of these! Stay tuned for more info and to catch the next one!)

This is a little off topic but mouse and keyboard always go hand in hand, don't they? If you are interested in having cool keyboards, you may be as well excited about cool mouses. I've been searching for a mouse that satisfies me the way customized mechanical keyboards do. But I could not find anything that even come close to what I want. Generally there are gaming mouses which are said to be accurate, sensitive, blah blah. Those I don't need, just like I never need plastic gaming keyboards from Corsair, Razer, Logitech, and the likes. I need aluminum cases, better tactile switches, good build quality and full programmability. For mouses, I need something that looks cool, wireless, durable, excellent build quality.
And finally I found one (links below). This mouse is made from metal and wood. You can't get anything better made than this. It also looks very cool. It's wireless and rechargeable through USB. It's currently on a crowdfunding campaign. The lowest price offered was $60 (which is now too late to get). However if you are interested, please check that out and spread the words. I hope Massdrop will offer mouses like this alongside mechanical keyboards.
