Anyone here have this? I'm thinking of getting it as my current standard Dell keyboard makes a lot of noise; but I need to know if the Cherry one also makes a lot of noise and if its decently responsive?

I have one, seems ok. The keys aren't "click" type.

The key press is soft feel, not microswitch.

The Eclipse is made of win. Very quiet and responsive.

I have one of the Cherry Keyboards.

If you don't want any poncy media keys and extra doohickeys, but you do want a really nice quality keyboard that's great to type on and cheap, deffo get one. I've had mine years and it feels like new.

Thanks for the responses everyone

I'm gonna get the Cherry (lol...)
Reason I don't want any of the others is because I want something that takes as little deskspace as possible; also I don't need the extra buttons and my pc already looks geeked out enough without weird shaped, glowing keyboard

Edit: So just to clarify - tapping keys on the cherry wont make a lot of noise?
