Looking for a mechanical book!

Thread Starter 
Hi everyone,

I'm suffering from the following: Choosing a specific mechanical keyboard.This is what I would like it to have:

-Cherry blue
-Backlit (preferably white leds)
-Tenkeyless
-2 windows buttons

So far the only keyboard which fulfills these requirements (albeit with blue leds) is the ducky dragon

Did I miss some?

As far as mechanical keyboards and back lighting go the selection is limited, especially when you start looking at tenkeyless. I recommend forgetting about the back lighting and just focusing on getting a keyboard that's going to feel good and last, so if you're good with that then check out these options:

 

1. http://elitekeyboards.com/products.php?sub=leopold,tenkeyless&pid=fc200rtab - 99$ Leopold

 

2, http://www.keyboardco.com/keyboard_details.asp?PRODUCT=835 - £95 Filco

 

3. http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16823129002 - 70$ QuickFire Rapid, while being the cheapest it's still a good choice. This is my current keyboard and I like it, I wouldn't recommend over the other two keyboard's listed but on a little bit of a budget it's an excellent option

 

All of these meet your requirements excluding the back lighting

Hm...

KeyCool 87 can be had with white backlight and MX Blue, but only one Windows key.

As yumyums says, your options will expand greatly if you are willing to tolerate lack of a backlight.
