Keyboard Help

I`m in the market for a new keyboard as the missus has told me she doenst like the one I currently have(microsoft natural) Now usually I wouldnt care what other ppl think but it does give me the op to get something new :D

I`ve been looking around a bit tonight and I`ve kinda fallen in love with the Das Ultimate keyboard. It seems crazy money and probably is but i spent crazy money on my razor mamba mouse anyway :D

Question is has anyone used one of these? Or have any other suggestions?

Mechanical is the way I want to go and as the price of this has shown Money isnt much of an object (as long as the missus doesnt see hehe)

she may not see the cost but she will hear it a mile away ;)

hehe indeed :D But on the Das website they sell earplugs :D

I've used the same MS Internet Keyboard since Dec 2001 and have no probs with it - ever !

Not the quietest, I'll admit, but very reliable.

Only had to take it apart once to clean, very easy, went back together very easy too.

Nice keyboard but expensive perhaps. Still I guess you get what you pay for and you use it a lot.

There was an interesting thread about mechanical keyboards recently. I was about to spring for a MX Red QPad MK-50 yesterday but it came to around £70 and I wasn't convinced on red vs brown.

I'm sure the Das Ultimate is well regarded but you may find some other options in that thread, mainly the OP. Good luck!

I've started looking at filco keyboards now :-D
Read a great thread on another forum over 25 pages and I'm pretty much decided now. The only ly thing now is whether to get a tenkey less one
