Tator already answered you about this.

@Ripster; no bias. I'll add them up once they actually have keyboard stocks. I even ordered a Leopold.

The difference between Leopald 10keyless (blue mx) and Filco 10keyless (blue mx) is $21.33 for me (Leopald being the cheaper one).

Decisions Decisions, wish I could test them before buying lol (brown vs. Blue). I have tested blue and really like the tactile feel and kinda like the clicky sound too.
Wish I could test the browns somewhere.

Browns are feel a bit like scissor switches, except they're high quality, a bit more crisp and with a longer travel distance.

The click is much, much more subtle. I like them better than blues, even for typing. I find the blues a bit too distracting in terms of tactility.

lol Not many people like Topre switches after having tried them. It feels totally different than Cherry switches. And after all the different switches I've tried, blacks are still my fave with browns in close second (still haven't got one with clear switches yet but I'm working on that).

What do you mean? Most people who have used the Topre switches seem to prefer them. They tend not to like them at very first try though, since they feel so different from the normal mechanical switches.

My first week with my realforce I didn't like it much, the second week I thought it was okay, and now I probably won't ever buy a keyboard with Cherry switches.

Check out the ? Also take a look at the Steelseries boards. They have linear switches, I think those are great to type on. I wouldn't consider getting a backlit board, just money better spent elsewhere.

Yup, you're right. Maybe it's just me then.
