This is a keyboard and not food, but I can't help but use the word "delicious" to describe it; it looks elegant and belongs on anybody's desk, from the keyboard-obsessed nerd to the dressed-to-impress new.com entrepreneur (anyone who looks more closely will realize from the blank keycaps that you're going to be the next Bond super villain).
Before I bought this, I read the SAME reviews you're reading right now and thought, "Hmm, I wonder if its actually as awesome as everyone makes out it out to be?"
I have had this keyboard for about 6 months so far and there is nothing wrong with it. i absolutely love the feel of the keys and my dogs made it fall at least 15 times off the arm of my couch where it is usually resting and the thing still in perfect condition.. best keyboard i have ever owned, period.

I decided after playing with a Corsair K90 since it's release that I wanted to dive into the 'big boys' mechanical keyboard fray, and try out the blue switches for the first time. Best decision ever.
Worth every penny. If you've ever played Vice City and remember the intro playing the sound of someone "pecking" away at a mechanical kb and you remember the goold old days of tank-like buckling spring kbs you could key smash all day long and clean coffe and ketchup stains out of, before people started looking at you weird?
My first mechanical keyboard. I went for the Ultimate model with no key markings on it so I could force myself to learn Dvorak. I like the light touch on all of the keys. They all feel very consistent. It is quite a heavy keyboard, but that helps keep it nice and stationary on my desk. I like the lack of extra buttons. They have kept it simple which meets my needs.
