Read and understood most, i think brown or black switches will be the best for me, thanks for helping.
Be sure to get a sample kit http://www.wasdkeyboards.com/index.php/products/sampler-kit-1.html before buying a keyboard, no need to spend €100 just to find out you actually don’t like the switches you’ve picked out.

Sounds interesting but im not sure im gonna be able to get that, thats one of the reasons im asking for opinions and not going to waste a lot of money for something i might not like before hearing people’s thoughts. Thanks for helping.
This one is a good one: http://steelseries.com/products/keyboards/steelseries-6gv2
Logitech G510s Gaming Keyboard is a great keyboard if you’re not up to mechanical ones.
For gaming, some tenkeyless thing.
I don’t have one, but I know I’d love it. So much more space, space for activities.

I’ve been using a MS sidewinder x6 for the past years and it’s really nice that you can remove the key block.
Anyways now I’m waiting for my cherry mx to arrive :D
I’d highly recommend a mechanical, switches are a very personal thing, so trying before you buy is great if you can (just see if you can borrow someones? I may have a spare Quickfire Rapid with blacks you could try, huhy is currently using it I believe).
TKL is awesome, even smaller is better :D

I do know that i probably dont wanna buy one before trying the switch atleast, but how would i do that, ill find out more about the tkl and keyboards with black/ brown switches which seems the best for me atm.
If you know anyone with a mechanical see if you can try it for a while :)
Some shops (in the UK at least) are starting to stock some of the more ‘gamer’ type boards with cherry mx switches, may also be worth a go.
I recommend a Filco (Diatec) Majestouch 2 with linear swithes (I’ve been using one for 2 years). Popular in Asia but relatively unknown in the west. Tenkeyless keyboards makes it easier to fit the mouse pad in front of you. Linear switches is the way to go for gaming are not as bad for typing as people are making them out to be, Commodore 64/128 had linear switches. People who complain about fatigue using MS Black (linear) switches seriously need to get some exercise.
