Title: Mac user trying to pick first mech keyboard
Post by: jterp7 on Tue, 21 May 2013, 23:47:37

So far it's between the cm storm quickfire TK in white or the ducky below. Some reviews describing certain keys having max brightness for both keyboards has me second thinking backlit keyboards.

Matias has good Mac mechanical keyboards, both clicky and quiet.

The WASD v2, due in June, looks like it will be very nice.

on another note is ducky the only maker with a hardware switch for the windows/alt keys? Can those on ML comment on the compatibility of the software key switchers?

WASD v2 has a Mac mode switch (for the Alt/meta keys, no doubt).
