Best keyboard for typing (and a little gaming)?

[Cromulent]

I'm on the look out for a new keyboard. I do a lot of programming so I want a good one for typing but it would be nice if it also had a few features for gaming as well.

I'm looking for a mechanical keyboard with blue switches so can anyone offer any recommendations at all?

In my humble opinion, you really cannot go wrong with a Filco Majestouch. Best keyboard I have ever used, and backed up by an awful lot of people if you google around.

That looks like a really nice keyboard.

I think I might get one when I get paid at the end of the month . Quite pricey though, I guess it'll be a big improvement over my current cheap as chips keyboard that is driving me insane.

I just wanted to say that I got this on Thursday and it is amazing. I doubt I could go back to my old keyboard now even if it does annoy people because of the noise. I love the way that it never slips around on your desk (unlike my previous keyboard).

I too love my Filco, and find it really is made like a tank. I don't expect to need a replacement for many years - and using membrane is now a really horrible experience for me

I found reds a bit off for typing with myself, and if you are into a bit lighter switches, Browns are more suitable with a little tactile bump, or the Blue's for high force and clicky sound. Blacks if you still want Linear though

I got mine with blue switches. Very nice typing experience.
