The Das Keyboard arrived.

  First  impression:  It's  heavy, clicky. It definitely sounds great. I
  wouldn't compare it to the IBM Model M, though, which feels much  more
  sturdy and solid.

  Let's see how it performs over time.

  I  think  about getting some Linux keycaps. It's easy to replace them,
  so why not?

  Here's two audio files:

  To sum it up, the Das Keyboard feels  like  "clickerty-click"  whereas
  the  IBM  Model M is like "HEAVY METAL INDUSTRIAL CLACK". Or something
  like that.

  Nevertheless, it's a lot more fun to type on the Das Keyboard than  on
  my previous non-mechanical keyboard. :-)
