I've been suffering with a bottom-of-the-range HP keyboard for years, so though it was about time for an upgrade. I went for a Das Keyboard because I couldn't bring myself to buy some gaudy multicoloured-illuminated gaming keyboard, even though many of them got very good reviews. I went for the Cherry MX Brown switches, just from reading reviews these sounded like what I'd prefer. And yes - I like everything about them! A thoroughly good keyboard.
