I've been eyeing this repeatedly but not sure it's what I want (like most, I'm sure it's not what I *need*, but... keyboard!) Most of the comments here seem to be from fans of reds and browns, whereas I'm a blues aficionado, with a good tactile Alps (say cream damped) as my second choice, which leads me to wonder if this might be not the droid I'm looking for.
I do a mix of writing text, coding, and gaming. I like a noticeable tactility, but low force; typing on my old rubber-dome boards is just torture anymore, and even the Alps scissors in my Thinkpad T60p feel like excessive work to me these days.
I'm looking at this as I've never had the opportunity to really try out Topre-style switches before (and real Topre is way too spendy for that kind of experimentation for me). One of the things I'm looking for an improvement in (besides lower force) is faster repeated keypresses... from a shorter travel and/or an actuation point that's easier to flutter around (the actuation being just below the tactile point in the blues makes this just awkward for me, I basically have to do a full stroke).
So... anyone think I'm likely to be particularly happy or unhappy with this board?
