Mechanical Keyboards Options

Who's got one and are you happy with it?
If so, which brand and what type of switches are you rocking out?
What is your main use for it? (gaming, typing, etc)

I've been looking into getting one, but still can't decide on what type of switch I'd prefer. I guess I really need to try before I buy.

Noppoo Choc Pro. Not too expensive for a full layout keyboard. MX blues, nice red backlight. It's amazing. I love it. Only thing I don't like is that it makes my mouse look cheaper... Waiting for that TTesports level 10 mouse to come out now :/

Looks nice I don't know a lot about Noppoo.

Since this thread started I have got a hold of a HHKB pro 2, which is now my main work board, love the Topre Real Force switches quite a bit different to the Cherries.

I do not miss the the arrow keys and the Ctrl in place of the caps lock is just genius.

Also do you find the Razer eXactmat to be rough on your mouse skates? Just a query. Just cause I used the mouse mat back in 2006 and it had a habit of scratching the mice.

The picture is outdated by a few years but you'd just replace the keyboard with Ducky G9008v2:
