Anyone using a mechanical keyboard?

My old keyboard was too big and bulky for my desk (original Logitech G15). I wanted to switch to a mechanical keyboard rather than the rubber bubble keyboards almost everyone uses these days.

I ordered a Razer Blackwidow from Amazon. This thing is fucking great. I can't imagine all programmers or writers not using these. When did we start using those cheap, spongy-feeling keyboards? I remember the old clicky, heavy IBM keyboards that everyone had back in the day. Why did we stop using those? Sure, they're a little louder but the rhythmic clicking is almost music to me.

I just ordered a Das Keyboard (also mechanical) for the office. Anyone else rocking a mechanical keyboard?
