So I'm in the market for a Mechanical Keyboard.
I've pretty much narrowed it down to a Filco or a Leopold. I'm leaning toward the Filco mainly due to the liking the stabilizers more on the larger keys, however everywhere I've read has told me that Filco keycap's shine/wear awfully quick. I'm an avid SC2 player/gamer in general so the left side of the keyboard would see pretty heavy use. Since I'm not nearly as knowledgeable as the veteran's on this board, I would like to get your suggestions, as well as some places to get some pretty decent keycaps for the Filco.
Any help is appreciated, thanks in advance.

For most ppl here, both is acceptable.
For Ripster (http://geekhack.org/member.php?1574-ripster), go for FILCO, avoid Leopold or Ducky at all mean.

filco caps do suck, but can always replace them later. I wouldn't make key caps a deal breaker.
