I got my first mechanical keyboard yesterday. Wondering if anyone else here has one. I'm not sure I ever want to get a non-mechanical one again after experiencing this.

If anybody reading this wants to save some money, buy an original IBM Model M for $200. It's an investment; the peripheral industry for the last decade has been a ploy to deliberately manufacture products that may work well when you first buy them, but will die out requiring you to buy a new one within the year. If you only buy one keyboard from Logitech (good example of this), that's not helping their bottom line, if you come back a year later to buy another one then that's making them money. American keyboards back in the day were manufactured with true innovation & durability, so the $200 you spend on an old IBM keyboard (with a USB adapter of course) will save you more money in the long run if you're not buying a $20-$70 fancy crappy RGB keyboard every single year. This applies to both kinds of keyboards.

Even if anything does go wrong, fixing it myself shouldn't be too hard. |

I have a Razer Blackwidow Chroma. It's done me well, especially with Synapse. My esc key broke so I replaced one of the macro keys with it. :^)
