CAGiversary!
I just found this Newegg deal while checking my e-mail. Its a pretty good deal considering the quality of the keyboard. If your fortunate you wont be charged tax so thats an added plus.

I can't deny the clicky allure of blue-switched mechanical keyboards, but if you're looking for something quieter this is a solid choice.

MX Cherry Brown switches aren't particularly loud. I'm neeeeeeever going back to a non-mechanical keyboard. I'd wondered why keyboards used to rock and now suck...until I heard about the whole mechanical thing.

Unfortunately I'm not clear what this year's Razer keyboards are using...they did use Blue and Brown switches, but it almost sounds like this year's models don't use Cherry switches anymore :whistle2:/ Might have to find a new brand for the next keyboard I buy.

To each their own, I'm not a fan of the feel/action of brown or red switches. I find them firm and unsatisfying.

I've yet to try any of the less common variants (black, white, green, etc.), but the blues are lovely. I'm just not sure I could completely sure I could adjust to the noise factor.

Though to be fair, it's pretty hard to type very quietly on anything but those awful chiclet keyboards.
