^ They're okay. It can get tiring after a while, but I think it's more on me not really used to typing with tall keys, not with the stiffness. My fingers will get used to it, eventually.

yeah i tried using it exclusively for a week.. but i shouldn't could get used to it. always ran back to my brown and blue switches.
weirdly enough, i can type and game fine on buckling spring keyboards (IBM model M).
Next upgrade is my case. i want to keep the white/black theme with a corsair 600t SE. case is NICE.

Love the 600t SE. Definitely a sweet case. Too bad it costs about $250 over here
, while my case is around $45, with the mods I did.
For roughly the same price, I'll get the full tower Cooler Master Cosmos S instead.

I need a new computer something with a lot of memory/ram. Would be using it just to dl music, run Rosetta Stone, etc. nothing crazy. Any affordable recommendations, possibly something that'll be cheaper on Black Friday.

budget?
best bet is to just F5 the hell outta slickdeals & look for something with an i3 sandy bridge or AMD A-Series cpu w/ 4GB of ram. Non of that AMD E-300,E-350,E-450 nonsense.
