I'm still enjoying it. So thanks for helping nudge me in that direction.

I went for the O-rings to reduce the noise level, and that's worked out well. I also opted for the colored key caps for the Shift, Ctrl, Option, Cmd, and Escape keys, and I like having those.

The typing experience is good. As someone who learned to type on an ancient manual typewriter and later used IBM Selectrics and early computer mechanical keyboards, I appreciate the amount of spring in the keys and the fact that just barely touching the key doesn't produce an unwanted keystroke. This keyboard is an affordable option, and I'd buy one again.
