Fawk yes on the 55g Realforce!!!  I still use my 45g, and various other MX switches when I want to change things up.  Actually, the Matias laptop pro gets used pretty often as well, much more than the MX switches, but still not as much as the 55g.  The 55g is that nice.  If you prefer heavy switches like you said, you won't be disappointed.

When I had a 45-gram and my 55-gram, switching as the day wore on, I found the 45-gram too light and made too many accidental key actuations. I can go between buckling-spring and 55g Topre, but I have difficulty trying to get into a lighter switch after using my 55g boards. Now I pretty much stay with my 55g for writing. I've yet to find a switch I prefer to the 55-gram Topre.

Good man.

The $199 55g is very tempting..

I feel the same way, but a new GPU and monitor is more important than a keyboard at the moment.
Keyboards are the only thing keeping me from consuming human flesh.
