    CM Storm QuickFire Rapid 10 keyless with brown keys to keep it fairly quiet. I've got 4 of them for some of the computers around the house. No RGB lighting for me!

    Makes me wonder whom you afraid to wake up. Never considered my typing a noise; the first neighbor to complain may be surprised.

      Absolutely! But you know, I am not a gamer, I'm a developer. I bought it for these reasons: 1) Durability. It lasts forever. 2) The Blue Cherry's are the best for my taste. 3) The red light is soft for working. (Multi color can be a little overwhelming) and 4) Because it has 6 x 3 macro programable keys which is fantastic to avoid repetitions for folding, unfolding, build... etc, functions that usually require CTRL + xx, CTRL + yy or something like that.

        Heh, not the neighbors. It's the guys I game with over the internet. They didn't complain but they could hear the clickity-clack when I was key mashing.

          C'mon, that's hardly the keyboard's fault. ;P

          It isn't exactly the keyboard's fault, but if good typists make more mistakes on this keyboard than on a slower keyboard, is it the best tool? I'm just reporting my experience. You can make of it what you will.

            Aight, good point; I'm on "push to talk", with the button to activate it on the mouse for that reason. That and the humming, singing and whining :D

              A while ago I dropped half a mug of coffee over my cheap USB keyboard and of course it died. Been given a Corsair K68 RGB, a mechanical keyboard (+ non spill mug). Sturdy keys, good for bulk typing. So, few days ago, the unthinkable happened - I dropped a full mug of coffee on the new keyboard. ..and it still works, without flaws. There's an anti-spill rubber between the keys and the internals, and there's a metal covering under that which protects the electronics. I'm convinced that nothing is idiot proof and I will find a weak spot, but for now, I'm pretty impressed. It's easily taken apart and cleaned and might actually last longer than a year. YouTube showing rain on a keyboard[^] So, what's your keyboard?

              [Unicomp buckling spring keyboard](https://www.pckeyboard.com/page/FeaturedProducts/UB4044A) (IBM Model M clone, basically) on one computer, [Filco Majestouch II (with Cherry MX Browns)](https://keyboardco.com/keyboard/uk-filco-majestouch-2-tenkeyless-nkr-mechanical-keyboards.asp) on the other. I don't know how well either of them deals with liquids, but I'm pretty sure I could use the Unicomp for self defense, given the weight of it!

              Java, Basic, who cares - it's all a bunch of tree-hugging hippy cr*p

                Plain simple DELL based. One that makes me feel key was pressed. :D

                  For me a keyboard must have an LED on the Caps Lock key. Using a Logitech K520r.
