        Really? That’s surprising. Are you just indifferent about the clickiness?

        I definitely aren’t as fanatical about them as most people, I don’t mind using non mech keys. But I definitely prefer using a nice mech keyboard when I have the option.

      What kind of mechanical keyboard?

      Sure, my razor one is kinda crappy, but I’ve used a very nice one at a friend who did the build your own thing.

        You know you can get quiter mech keyboards? Also sometimes people put O rings on the stem of the key to dampen the sound. I don’t think there are any slim mech keyboards- though there are nice small 50%, 60%, 65% and 70% keyboards

        Edit: here’s what a 50% keyboard looks like, pretty cute right?

          There’s one of the Cherry DW 9500 i have now, with their new slim switches and for two times the price. But i was satisfied with this one and it’s not worth the effort for me with dampening.

            Ah I see, yeah after commenting that I remembered seeing something a few years ago about a laptop that has slim mech keys, they must use similar switches to that keyboard.
