I have a few membrane keyboards laying at the side of my desk on the floor. All of them abandoned because the rubber domes worned out. I don't think I'll be buying membrane keyboards anymore. But I still consider getting a scissor switch keyboard for typing acceleration.

Have had a Razer Blackwidow since 2011, me and a buddy bought one at the same time. He later got one of those custom old school mechanical ones (he loves that old Macintosh keyboard), so I bought his blackwidow as well. A week after I bought his, I spilled coke on mine. So I was prepared with his directly.This one has started to put in double characters from time to time, which is highly frustrating. I am starting to plan a new purchase pretty soon, and I am leaning towards Corsair Vengeance K70 CherryMX Blue switches. Since I recently got the Corsair Vengeance M65 Mouse. Any general opinions about the K70?

Yeah, though the WC parts do nothing to me, the keyboards there are to die for.....Topre, HHKB, Ducky, Filco, CM,....and they would be getting Poker 2 and DECK Hassium. Those are a bunch of reasons why I'd not step in there for a while, this Ducky yellow with MX Clear was the only reason why I'd gone there.

 

Oddly enough, I have not gotten my Miami set yet, I think I'm among the last few that have not received ours yet.....hopefully, in a few days' time. When I do get mine, I will put them on my white painted DK9008 and post a few shots.....

Never shoot them with turned on LED lights before. So, here it is:

Full image of the keyboard:

I fold up an unused cloth roughly 20mm thick and shove them in a PE plastic and put my heavy Filco on them to dampen the noise of my blue switch. Keyboard doesn't even move while I'm typing. Keyboard weight just make me proud to use the keyboard on any slippery surface.

 

EDIT : I must warn you not to click the image. This is the best view you can get or you can zoom out as out as possible without clicking the image.  :P
