Do you want a mechanical keyboard or dome/regular?

I have http://www.daskeyboard.com/model-s-ultimate/ and its pretty fucking awesome.

Nah, I'm looking for a quiet keyboard so far I'm leaning toward the Microsoft Sidewinder X4 as a economical solution. But I'm open to anything else in a silent category.

As an owner of Microsoft Sidewinder X6, I'd say it's pretty noisy.

If you want a quiet mechanical keyboard, try searching for the ones with cherry mx red, brown or black switches.
Stop assuming things.

They have a "silent" version aswell http://www.daskeyboard.com/model-s-ultimate-silent/ even though im not sure how silent it is compared, since its well, mechanical.

The strike 7 is quite possibly the most useless waste of money I've ever seen

Price:  £249.99 - really??

US website says $300, but eh, getting such an expensive keyboard is just silly, expensive =/= quality

I use a Logitech K100. Got it for $10.

Cheap keyboards are great, and all keyboards, regardless of how flashy they are, should last you a LONG time.

Honestly, this is the best. It's simple, quiet, and for the price it's a quality keyboard. I've used it for ~2 years and I don't have a single problem with it. I don't see the point in wasting tons of cash for some keyboard that has cool red keys which can then make rainbow colors.

I was looking into that but from looking over some reviews it apparently has severe ghosting issues.

Well all I can tell you is that I've never had any problems with it. If you get it at a place like bestbuy you could just return it if you don't like it.

I paid a bit more than I thought I would and got a razer lycosa mirror something or other edition which I really like and is a good keyboard so far.

Though, before that I had a logitech g11 for about 4 years or something which was brilliant, though wanted a new keyboard that didnt have a fuck off selection of macro keys on the side as I never used them and needed a standard keyboard.
