Haven't found another keyboard that I like so I'm sticking with it as long as it will last.

I like the layout of the keys. Location of the slashes, size / shape of the enter and backspace and even the location of the 6 keys for Home, End, Del, etc. In my opinion, this was the last great keyboard that Microsoft made.
 
Ger yourself a blackwidow,you won't regret it.

Supports some macro's,mechanical keyboard,comes with or without back light (one without is cheaper),feels heavy and sturdy and it won't slide around on your table.

Don't let the plainness fool you.

Thought about a blackwidow but the reviews of the Corsair products are drawing me in :)

Just make sure you ask them to check if all the keys work correctly.

Sometimes the keys can get stuck because of some of the edges not getting cut after production.This can easily be fixed my taking out the key and just pulling it off.

Good to know. Is that specifically for the blackwidow or in general?

There are a few differences such as weighting and the actuation points. I like the idea of browns as they are a mixture of gaming and typing needs :)
If I had to choose between looks and the keys I wanted I think I would be stumped...

I'm rocking a Cherry MX Brown CM Storm Quickfire Pro. Its the best R800 I've ever spent on any peripheral, and I can type as quietly or as loudly as I want. Also, its rock solid and the partial backlighting works really well for late-night gaming. I also like the fact that it does not require drivers to be installed. Cooler Master uses the same OEM as Ducky, which is currently very popular in the UK.
