Who's got one and are you happy with it?
If so, which brand and what type of switches are you rocking out?
What is your main use for it? (gaming, typing, etc)

I've been looking into getting one, but still can't decide on what type of switch I'd prefer. I guess I really need to try before I buy.

My favourite are reds... but you really do have to try before you buy (had blacks but i found them far too stiff for long gaming sessions)

Bought a CM storm quickfire with MX blacks over xmas, a damn fine tenkeyless board, if you are looking for something non backlit and cheap smile.gif

I have been really pleasantly surprised with the build quality and also interactive support of the CM products, I bought myself the Spawn mouse after reading interesting sensor comparisons too have a play with for Xmas and for the $40, brilliant value and so comfortable for a claw style grip .

I had a CM Sentinel (well, have, but use my g9x instead), the rubber started to rub off after about 4 months of use.
