Looking to buy first mechanical keyboard

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 
I am looking to get my first mechanical keyboard and am close to decided but just want to get some final feedback.
I am currently looking at http://www.amazon.com/CM-Storm-Trigger-Mechanical-SGK-6000-GKCM1-US/dp/B007TFOO6K and was wondering if anyone had any experience with it and tell how it is.
Second I am kind of split on what type of keys to get. I am leaning towards browns, I don't want the clicky sound that blues do, would just bug me or people in skype to much. I would like to know which ones feel closest to a normal keyboard like my normal g15 right now.
Finally any other suggestions for a good mechanical keyboard, the only thing I would request it had would be red back lit lights.
Thanks

I am currently using that keyboard right now and its awesome! this was my first mech keyboard as well, and its a great buy. however, i have heard that some people do not like the number pad and prefer the 10keyless version - ex. CM Storm Quick Fire Rapid. personally, i like the number pad, and if you dont mind it either, the CM Storm Trigger is a great choice.
