Very nice board. If you have never used reds they will feel very light at first. Easy to make mistakes. But you'll get used to it.

i've noticed that when i started using it....and it's clicky too biggrin.gif

sure beats the logitech G15 i had before and it was starting to get a bit rough around the edges and it needed to be retired.

I received the XArmor U9W a few days ago and have been using it for most of today. The build quality is not great (whatever hinges are supposed to attach the wrist wrest to the board seem to have broken in transit, for example), but it's perfectly functional and I'm enjoying my first mechanical keyboard. These keys are a bit loud for my taste, but typing and gaming are much more enjoyable than before. I'd be really interested in seeing some wireless mechanicals from some of the popular manufacturers.

I'm about to take a dive into the world of mechanical keyboards and order a Filco Majestouch but I'm having trouble deciding between the normal Majestouch 2 and the Ninja. I like the idea of the Ninja since the writing will never wear off my keycaps, but how easy is it to see the side-printed keys while typing? I can't really touch type (sadly) so I'm wondering if this would be a problem or not.

neither can i so i went with the majestouch 2 in cherry mx red.

i like typing fast cos it makes me feel like i can touch type when i really can't and if i do it's ain't fast enough!

Yeah, I gave it some more thought and just ordered a Majestouch 2 in MX Browns. Should be at my front door in 2 days! wheee.gif If the writing actually does wear off the pad printed keycaps quickly, I'll just buy a set of laser etched caps from WASD and be done with it.
