Looking at your sig, prepare to be disappointed.  You have some great keyboards that the Dell will not be able to measure up to.

Thanks. I didn't plan on buying one, just happened to stumble across the ad this morning and thought I would do my civil service and share.

Though, I was thinking of picking one up as a christmas gift for a friend who, like me, has been thinking about mechanicals for the past year, but hasn't pulled the trigger yet.

Never tried black alps, so figured at $17.99 it aint too bad. :smile:

At 101w's are pretty good.  They have strong springs almost like cherry blacks so your key will get back to position right away, good for fast typing.

I actually have quite a few of these NIB.  For a while, I picked one up every time they could be had for under $10 shipped.  (which was, surprisingly, lots of times)

These make great loaner or giveaway 'boards.  They may not be the cream of the crop (although they do have a large following), but they are still better then a ton of crappy keyboards out there...and a great gateway drug.  :)
