Yeah, aesthetics really are in the eye of the beholder. I'll have you know I wouldn't bring my BW to a professional work place.

I'm really interested in the Majestouch as well, where did you manage to get a hold of one?

Yeah, I mean, it's as if you're buying a product that sells on quality and reliability alone. I like a product that sells on its aesthetics and LED lights. When I buy a computer, I don't look at the spec sheets, I just buy the tower with the most stickers on it. Here is my current rig: ASRock MoBo - 2 flashing lights and 3 stickers CPU - 0 flashing lights and 4 stickers GPU - 4 flashing lights and 7 stickers PSU - 2 flasing lights and a spinny fan HDD - 3 flashing lights and 8 stickers RAM - 4 flashing lights and 2 stickers Keeping a high flashing lights to stickers ratio is really important, because everyone knows if your sticker count overtakes your flashing light count it is time to upgrade!
This wouldn't be yours, would it?

Probably not, this guy doesn't have any stickers...

I received my cherry brown tenkeyless Filco in the mail today. I posted a review in the "what keyboard are you using" thread that's also in this tech support forum, if you're interested in it then you can check it out there as I don't want to double post.
Bottom line is, I absolutely love this keyboard. It has excellent build quality, awesome feedback and function, and it is not as loud as I thought it would be. I can't wait to load up SC2 and play a few games with it to see how I like it for gaming. But as far as typing goes, I absolutely adore this thing.
Highly recommended.

couldnt get anything but a blackwidow in aus. its awesome though and im really really happy with it for the 100 dollar price point.

just fooling around a bit with the IBM Modell M i found. but what i already know now... i definitly gonna buy a new mechanical keyboard. so sad i needed all those years to find out about mechanicals. Will prolly buy a filco majestouch with blue switches, but there is non available atm anywhere with german layout T_T

I bought a Black Widow a month ago, its a quality product. It's beautiful too.

Can recommend the site and keyboard both.

I've been wanting to try a mechanical keyboard partially to see if it helps at all with my repetitive strain that I am getting in my arm. I hear the browns are lighter, so I think they might be better for me. However, I also hear that the blues are better for typing, so I wasn't sure (I haven't gamed as much these days because of my arm trouble, I mostly do typing for school and stuff).
|
I can recommend the Zowie Celeritas keyboard.
What is exceptional about this keyboard is that the keys are made of Nylon and it feels very soft and smooth when you type on it. For the game experience this is very convenient since my hands tend to sweat alot and the keys wont have that rubbing feeling unlike with general ABS keys.
I've made a review of it here at geekhack

This is not a "problem". Simplicity, elegancy and efficiency are features a lot of us enjoy.

I would shop around for a good price on the 6gv2. I absolutely love it and there are some really good deals on them out there.

I love my BW and it is so nice on the wallet compared to other mechanical keyboards. Props to Razer. I use to hate Razer but I was impressed with the BW value & quality that I bought a Deathadder mouse and Goliathus Control pad. So far I'm pretty happy and all this costed less than my xbox arcade fight stick. The only thing I hate about it is the gloss (got over it), and the shifting of the f keys. The macros never get in the way anymore during SC2 and I found some use for them for everyday use.

Flash doesn't use that Keyboard, and I really doubt he put input into making it. Zowie sponsors KT so just like any company they have some bullcrap statement coming claiming it came from Flash so people will buy it. Even in the Press Release "Flash" states hes been using the Keyboard for the past 4 months.. Go look at his last match. Still using his white DT-35.

I just bought my Ducky with cherry MX blue. It's a bit loud but everytime I type/game, its very satisfying.
