Anandtech mentions Mechanical Keyboards

Since we're going all out, we'd be remiss if we didn't include suggestions for the peripherals as well. When I think of the ultimate keyboard, I immediately think of one keyboard—the Das Keyboard. If you haven't heard of it, chances are you've been living under a rock, or been blind sighted by all the flashy gaming-focused keyboards with copious amounts of LED lights but little attention to the mechanics of keydomes. If you want a gaming keyboard, get the Logitech G510—it's awesome and I have one—but if you're serious about typing, consider the Das Keyboard. Das Keyboard is essentially the modern IBM model M equivalent, and is a joy to type on purely because of the serious mechanical and aural feedback.

I love how it's always the Das that's mentioned in these things along with the Model M. No love for Unicomp from tech sites. Odd, considering the Customizer 101 is really "the modern IBM model M equivalent".
Current Favorite:  Noppoo Choc Mini with Cherry MX Blues
"Storage": ABS M1, Unicomp Customizer 104, Razer Lycosa, (3) Dell AT101W, GeekHack Space Saver
Other stuff: Razer DeathAdder, eXactMat
