    The joy of a mechanical keyboard

    Nothing gets me harder than the sound of an old fashioned mechanical keyboard. Kind of like the one I'm using now, build in 1994. It makes such a satisfying click, and has a perfect tactile feel.

    So let me ask you, why aren't YOU using a mechanical keyboard?

                                      I can't stand the clicky keyboards. They just drive me up the wall. My favourite right now is the Logitech Illuminated Keyboard because of its super low profile keys and lack of clickiness. My previous fave was the Logitech UltraX, which they changed for the worse then discontinued. Optimally there would be no travel at all, just a tap like on a touchscreen.

                                          Everytime you hear a click, an angel gets it's wings. Hey, get me! I'm givin' out wings!

                                          I miss them and I know I have a couple old Tandy kb's around here that click. Maybe when I destroy this one I'll check into some adapters and try one out.

I always wanted a G18 but I have no idea what I would do with the little LCD now that I don't game anymore.

They say you can change it into a second monitor, maybe like an intuos type deal? The image posted shows a game or show, either way looks pretty sweet. They have an infared one out now as well but that one looks like a pain.

With my old squishy silent keyboard, I made a billion more mistakes while typing. Mostly missed letters.

                                                                                                          But in all honesty, the 'old' clicky keyboards sound cool... but in these days I'd rather have a silent keyboard.
                                                                                                          you can type for hours and hours and never get tired... how long can you talk for? 60 minutes then your voice wears out...

                                                                                                          Plus i type about 5 times faster than i can talk.

                                                                                                                          Sorry that was misleading. I've never had one break, or even a key wear out. They do get a bit louder over time though, especially the space bar on its way up after being pressed.

                                                                                                                          I've just had a number of workstations that have needed keyboards. I've probably owned 5 or 6 of these.
