Mechanical keyboard users from all around Switzerland are meeting in Zurich. And you can decide when to meet.

Mechanical keyboards have a cult-like following. Which switches are best? Which cap colours are the most beautiful? How should the keyboard be laid out? But wait: what is everyone else doing with their periphery of choice? This last question can be answered by the Swiss Mechanical Keyboard Enthusiast Community (Swiss MK).

The community, which includes developer of Debian and member of the «Hackerfunk» podcast Axel Beckert, is inviting fanatics across the country.

Mechanical keyboards awaken many imaginations. After all, you use keyboards daily and spend many hours with them. This doesn't just agitate the mind, however. It also wakes a certain feeling of nostalgia for old keyboards that aren't being made anymore.

The Swiss MK event will allow you to talk with other enthusiasts, drink coffee, argue, debate and collect new ideas.
