i think im a palm grip person, so lifehackers statement on logitech g9 being a claw grip is inaccurate.  You both have the option of changing from palm or clawgrips with the gamegrip or widegrip shells that comes with the mouse.

If keyboard p0rn is not enough for you and you're getting into mouse porn as well, go to OCN (http://www.overclock.net/f/375/mice)!

I have a review (http://www.overclock.net/mice/1105557-cm-storm-spawn-review-comparisons-abyssus.html) and a buying guide (http://www.overclock.net/t/1139756/looking-to-buy-a-mouse-mousepad-read-this-first) there.

I like how they say mechanical keys are harder to press down than traditional keyboards . . . have they heard of reds?

The one mech. keyboard they mentioned in the article was SS 6gv6 with Cherry blacks.

They recommended a MS Curve 3000 in their "ergonomic" section. One of their editors tried out a MS Natural 4000 but didn't bother to lower their desk to compensate for the keyboard's increased height, so they didn't like it. User error blamed on the equipment.

Lifehacker has really gone downhill in the past few years.

But blacks are still equal in actuation force to most rubber dome if I remember correctly, of course, if they bottomed out, it would probably feel like the blacks require more force.

I prefer blacks anyway.
