Arguably the best keyboard on the market. Well made with quality keys and replaceable key caps. Make the “Windows” key a “Linux” key.
This is a lovely keyboard but is indeed very loud. Depending on your office environment and tolerance of colleagues, you may wish to opt for the brown mechanical key switches.
The high-gloss case is very easily scratched. Mine developed a surface scratch within minutes of unboxing, and I believe it was a result of particulate matter on the cleaning cloth. Don't be disappointed if yours scratches too.
Having used many types of Mac Compatible keyboards, including Unicomp buckling spring keyboard, I decided, upon researching, to invest in two DasKeyboards. In my opinion they are superior in every way to any other keyboard on the market with only one small negative feature. The Caps lock light is on the right hand side of the board and is a rather dim and small blue LED. Mac users are used to the light being on the left hand side. I have written to the manufacturers with the sugestion that the light be either relocated to the left hand side of the board or the current LED increased in brightness and/or changed to green. Otherwise perfect in the extreme.
Super awesome feel
