Normally how much they cost ?
saw lelong for Rm550 isnt that a bit expensive compared to other website ?

Filco and Leopold Mechanical Keyboard is coming to malaysia in April, with local warranty.

So i think you should wait for Filco and Leopold to arrive, since they are much cheaper by then.

Yes I have tried cherry browns.
Looks like clears might be the switch I am looking for, though i really want to research everything nicely before making a purchase.

I read too that Clears are rather stiff, almost like Blacks? I have never tried blacks before.
My primary usage is for typing. Would typing long time on clears tire the fingers easily?

i hate black because they tire my fingers out typing on them tongue.gif don't know bout the clears coz when i tried out the only one that was selling in cleverly it felt okay. in the end i chose brown to be safe.

I don't know about the blacks man, despite the large number of people saying that black switches are "too hard on the fingers", there are many people out there saying that blacks are extremely comfortable to type on lol.

well, the only difference i felt from using black switch and red switch is that i seldom bottom-up when using the former 1. Red switch however, is so light that i bottom-up almost all the time. and, 1 thing bout black switch is that the push back is greater compared to other switches when u're going to reach the bottom. Being "hard to the finger" is a little exaggerating.... LOL
all in all, if you do not like the push back force of black switch, go for the red tongue.gif

Any games? Better dont go for blue if you play action games, FPS or other fast pace games lots. The double tap of blue isn't really feel good to game on.

BTW, other infamous issue that happen to most of Razer BWU(and some BWE) are:
1. uneven / semi faulty switch which will feel, sound and bump different.
2. the keys are unevenly lifted(mean some keys on the same row may be higher and some is lower). For my case, my 'N' key are sank by 1mm and my 'C' key elevated 1mm.
3. flex of the keyboard wrist rest due to it's design. The design is semi floating and the wrist rest tend to flex upward at the centre.

Lastly, just want to ask whether you use laptop or desktop? BWU isn't so suitable with laptop due to it's bulky cables and the so called braided cable also caused some problems to me(it occur since i bought it).
*
actually it's not the switch problem for the uneven caps. try to bottom the "up lifted" keys and press deeper.

Anyway, ducky 9008 nkey?

if bulk, less than 400 biggrin.gif

Added on March 23, 2011, 7:37 pmBTW, i realise that the oddity(uneven switch) of razer BW MAY BE coming from deep pressing(with force) of switch. My arrow down keys originally click normally but after ytd i pressed it forcefully, it become a little like those other faulty-clickly keys...

So, beware those keyboard spammer... sweat.gif

That will become semi-brown switch. biggrin.gif Thats good.

Okay, doh.gif may be for those who prefer lighter switch...(those faulty blue are lighter and less bump than normal blue). rolleyes.gif

Brown should be no, need to find forumers' help.

Between all Cherry MX Switches, Cherry MX Blue has the highest RMA rate.

No offense to Razer, but from what i learn from few keyboard manufacturer staff, Razer purchase refurbish cherry MX Blue from other manufacturer which is not directly from Cherry. Cherry -> New Switch -> Manufacturer -> RMA -> Refurbish -> Razer.

do noted they have the cheapest blue switch around, so you can actually understand the quality issue of each switch having different sound.
