Welcome to Geekhack!

A mech keyboard certainly makes you realise what you have been missing all this time :)
"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

Yeah, once you go mechanical, you never go back.
May not rhyme, but it's the truth :D

A PLU G-3000M (Black) POM-plastic with MX Brown switches. A very fine board - yet noobody has really reviewed it or even made it well known.
An Cooler-Master QuickFire Pro with MX Brown, far less nice than the above - layout isn't bad but the key cap height is a little too much IMHO. If only they had bothered lighting the other 2/3 of the board...
