hey guys
I love my apple keyboard but I lust for mechanical
I hate the noisy ones so I'm in really for the silenced keys and in design

Welcome aboard! Be sure to give browns a try, they're my favorite and sound like they may also be a great match for you.

Hi there, welcome :)

Find anything you might want to try? Or are you still trying to narrow down your research?

Welcome to Geekhack!

Anything except clicky switches (e.g. MX blue, green, buckling springs) should be fairly silent.  And if the bottoming out sound is still too loud, you can install O-rings under the keycaps to dampen the bottom out sound.

Although some of us like that sound :D

Any idea what size keyboard you'd like?  Full size?  TKL?  60%?  40%?

With the new zealincios or whatever you can even silence the up stroke.
