you know what I do like me some mechanical keyboards but I recently switched back to a run of the mill scissor switch keyboard because I think I like low profile keys more. Now I know there are some low profile mechanicals out there but I'm not sure I care enough to spend the money to get one. I think I'll give this one a go for a while, maybe I'll switch back later
I couldn't warm up with mechanical keyboards for that reason, even the low profile ones were way too much travel for my taste. Cherry has recently released mechanical scissor switches, but the keyboards with them are very expensive.
I'll never forget my Logitech UltraX that served me for 8 years before getting it's space bar support broken.
The second rule of mechanical keyboards is you don't spend money to buy a mechanical keyboard. You spend more money to build a mechanical keyboard.
