We talk a lot about mechanical keyboards around here, and with good reason. They're the kind of life/work upgrade you never look back from, and a joy to type and game on. Today we want to know what your favorite mechanical switch is, and why.
Lifehacker has a great post about how to choose the right mechanical keyboard, and why you'd want to for those of you just starting out, and last week we wrote about a cheap and endlessly fun reference tool/desktop toy that'll let you sample all the switch colors.
We've also already polled you about your Favorite Keyboards and Favorite Gaming Keyboards, and both posts have a ton of great arguments for and against specific keyboards.
But now, it's time to vote.
