I've always liked mechanical keys. Used to have a Dell AT101W.

Now I have a TT Poseidon. It's decent.

Rocking an IBM Model M, PS/2 connector, no Windows key, beautiful beige.

Love my mechanical keyboard on my MSI gaming laptop

Got that, and also the G910. Like the 910 much better. Can't say exactly why, but it's just better, to me, at least.

Ugh... I love the typing experience on my model S keyboard I just got but I seem to type a lot more accurately (and faster as a result) on my apple membrane keyboard

Will it take me some time to get used to a mechanical keyboard? It has been a very long time since I used sculpted keys. Usually I am typing away on laptop keyboards.

Currently using Corsair Vengeance K70.

Great keyboard and feel.

When I worked at Dell, I'd always go down to the mailroom where all the excess equipment was collected. I had the AT101W for a long time.

same, corsair k70 cherry mx reds

only drawback to the k70 is the spacebar

should have bought a ducky shine

I've been using a first gen Filco Majestouch Otaku Edition with Cherry MX Blues for years and I would not trade it for the world...well maybe the wireless version of the keyboard but still. It's a wonderful keyboard.

I am so jealous.

Alienware, uses 2 USB ins, but quiet cool and useful, not only for gaming.

I use a Corsair K70 with Blue switches for home and at work!

[Xenny]

also rocking a filco majestouch with blue switches. love it.

I have 2:

1. Razer black widow ultimate stealth - Orange switches.

2. Corsair Strafe RGB - brown switches, perfect for work.

Is it normal to be slower on a mechanical keyboard in the beginning?

I have owned a ton, but Das has been my favorite.

Currently I own three:

I own a model S with brown switches.

A Das Keyboard Professional with reds.

And then a script less Das Ultimate 4 with blues. The new blues are SUPER stiff and that keyboard is very clicky. Great for gaming but not so much for typing.


I use the Professional the most and use it at home, the S was my work keyboard but it has been mutilated by two years of use. I'm surprised that the key caps didn't hold up a little better. I don't know if there's a way to fix it but to my knowledge there is no substitute key cap sets for the Das lineup currently. I would definitely change all the key caps to continue using the S, such an awesome feel.

Reds have been my favorite overall, and the Professional has a nice clack to it. The Blues on the ultimate are just too much for me, I've found my niche.

Yes Cherry MX Blue.
I love to type on it but I'm not as accurate on it, and therefore slower.

Using a Razer Blackwidow Tournament Stealth.

I love it for games but every day use, it is very noisy. Also, I miss the split keys of my microsoft natural keyboard for typing - its much more comfortable.

Ducky shine 2 or 3 with cherry mx switches or corsair k95 rgb. Best boards out there
