Does anybody have a recommendation for a good mechanical keyboard that i can use at work?

I looked at the gaming ones and I find their designs not very acceptable for work.

In terms of preferences I would prefer brown switches, but reds are fine for me too. I would also like to have led backlighting, but if there isn't then non backlighting models are also fine.

Corsair K70. Best. Keyboard. Ever. (Just use the black WASD keys, not the red ones - they're hideous.)

It uses brown switches, so it makes quite a lot of noise and it might bother those around you if you work in an open office space.

Ha ha, I use one of those at home. Took it to work with me so I could see if I'd enjoy a mechanical KB at work. Used it for around a month there.

Great keyboard. However, they've placed a "/" key on the right of the shift key on the left of the KB, so I found myself typing "/" instead of an upper case character quite often. That was my only gripe.

Edit: WTF, I see no "/" on that one from RebelTec :/ My bad. I'd go for it then :D

lol? My / is on the right of the keyboard just to the left of the right shift key. I think your keyboard is a British or Australian one.
