IMO Razer's Blackwidow Stealth is the best keyboard I've used and worth the price, as are some other mechanical keyboards. If you play seriously I would buy one. tell your mates at razer that we want a damned german layout for the black widow stealth T_T edit: then i would get one  difference between german and us layout sucks too much. cant get used to both at the same time. Start programming. You'll switch to an US layout very fast. OnTopic: I do have a QSenn DT-35, it's decent. Imho it's better than the cheap logitech/cherry ones, but that may just be my imagination. If you have the money you'll probably be better off with a mechanical - but I personally spill too many beers into my keyboards. And killing a 15$ Qsenn is just better than killing a 150$ mechanical (I also use that keyboardskin thing which comes with the qsenn so extra protection!).

Not all of the keyboards they sell are mechanical they could use normal "gaming" keyboards!

Actually, the amount of pressure can be calculated with confidence and there are articles floating around specifying exactly how much activation pressure is needed for which switch type.
If you like linear action (membrane keyboards are not linear, so I don't really know what you mean by your statement), then you might like black switches (requires more activation pressure) or red switches (light pressure needed). If you like to have a click telling you when the key is activated (usually this click is felt halfway to the full bottom-out) then you might like blue switches (audible click) or brown switches (tactile click, i.e. it's not audible per se but you can feel it).
Personally I love my brown switches for typing and gaming, but I would really like to try red switches some day because I'm curious about how I would like linear action.

Even with the Korean characters they still have the English characters above them, I have a dt35 and its really worth it, the Korean characters are not a hindrance at all.

I've been playing SC2 on a laptop for the past 1 and a half years and I haven't really felt the need to use a different keyboard. Laptops are usually scissor switches. A very small switch that are mostly used to save space. Same stuff as those mac keyboards. So very small and very slick, but overall they are not that great to type on. Laptops have a rubberdome with a balancer (what you call a scissor) .

The problem with DT-35 is that the alt key is slightly out of place compared to normal keyboard (more to left side). When i first used the DT35 i had problems pressing the alt key accurately (always hit hangul toggle key). Now, when i use the normal keyboard, i always end up hitting the windows key or something by mistake when trying to press alt

Feels really weird and suboptimal. It may feel weird to you, but it's wrong to say it's not linear. Rubber dome membrane switches are very non-linear. There are various mecanical switch types, so you'd need to state which switch you're referring to. Even then, the non-linear cherry keys are far more linear than rubber dome, and the linear cherry keys are — linear.
If you're used to rubber dome membrane, like anything, it takes time to adapt to a different feel.

That is interesting. I have 6gv2 and I love it. Best keyboard I've ever had. But now I plan to buy dt-35 usb for my laptop and for traveling. (I hate playing on laptop keyboard).
After all comments I read here I fear DT-35 will make me stop using 6gv2. And I love 6gv2 :D
