Screw in aluminum feet, complete with rubber bumpers, can be used to place the mechanical keyboard at an angle. They’re exactly what one would expect. Their design isn’t perfect, though. There isn’t a buffer between the metal surfaces, so rotation and vibration will result in finish wear. Two thin, pre-cut pieces of circular plastic should be included to prevent such damage. If Vortex doesn’t take that advice, it should be easy to craft your own. Keeping the keyboard flat is more ergonomic, though, so it’s up to you.

The primary changes would be the longer Esc and Del keys, and part of this is to help keep the top row staggered while maintaining some symmetry, but it will end up being a deal breaker for a lot of people who look at such keyboards as more of a long-term solution with personalization in mind. The included replacement keycaps help a lot here, but please do still take note of this. The top row is not the only culprit here either as the bottom row's modifier keys on the left side of the space bar are longer than those on the right side, for example. All this is a result of the 75% keyboard form factor not really being a standard, which has companies take the liberty to do as they deem fit. Vortex has a lot of things right here, but some will alienate potential customers. Coffeekeys di Polli Matteo – PEC [email protected] – P.IVA 01248410258 – Reg. Imp.

Fn + Pg Up activates Dvorak, and Fn + Pd Dn activates Colemak mode, as can be seen on the secondary legends on those keycaps. The good thing is that the DSA keycaps mean you can easily swap keycaps around to match these without worrying about sculpting or a keycap's top curvature.
