Are you ambidextrous, why do you have two mice? Awesome boards though. Are the keycaps PBT or GMK ABS?
why do you have two mice?
I have two mice because my job involves two laptops. One is from my employer and the other is from the customer. The Elecom M-XT4DRBK is on the left, and the Elecom M-XT3DRBK is on the right. One is a mirror image the other. Not bad mice, although the ball isn't as smooth as the Elecom HUGE or Kensington Orbit.
Before, I had a special cable that allowed me to share a mouse & keyboard between the two computers. That broke with Windows 10. Next I set up a bluetooth-enabled Vortex Tab 75 with these two mice, and switched between the two computers with the Pn hotkey. That was fine, but I was missing ortho a lot.
Are you ambidextrous
I'm not really ambidextrous, but it seems like a cool idea to me, and I can run a mouse ambidextrously just fine. IMO, using a left hand mouse is actually more comfortable for me because I use Dvorak, where the ZXCV are easier to access with the right hand. But tbh I picked up left hand mouse years ago because I thought it might help with right side back pain.
Are the keycaps PBT or GMK ABS?
GMK ABS. It's the wonderul 9009 Ortho Kit & Vim kit from R2 (missing from R3). DixieMech sold them for a while, but the demand was so low that they chose not to include it in 9009 R3. R3 had a kit that supported Planck, but sadly it was only the bare-minimum layout. They even forgot to include the 1u Fn key.
I am very tempted to get another SharkPCB, but I have other things that have priority before I can splurge on another one.
Glad you're enjoying the Shark pcb!

Soon you'll have 9009 of them!
