I've been toying with buying a Leopold 87-key with MX brown switches and stealing the keycaps from it so it matches my number pad

I did just this. Getting pretty dangerously deep into some real nerd territory here. I wish I liked the MX browns so I could just use the Leopold and not have to pull off and reinstall 87 keycaps times 2, but clears are so much better.

My GF has been wanting a mech keyboard for work, so I'll give her the Leopold board with browns and my current PBT cap set.

MS Ergo 4000 keyboard, I get arm pain on regular keyboards. Have a bunch stashed away as spares, they go on sale for like $25 all the time.

Microsoft Internet Keyboard Pro. I've been using this model keyboard at work and at home for probably 16 years or more. I've gone through maybe six of them in that time, and I think I still have one or two more new in boxes somewhere. Love it.

He gets a pass, since I think he's a non-native English speaker (Dutch).

WE non-natives are the ones who have the better grammar; if anything, he should take his responsibility to represent. And, Dutch people of all humans are the ones who have the most impeccable English. So, double no.

Understood. I'll make it a priority to call out your failure to capitalize letters and other grammatical errors in the future.

Mines nothing special. Just a Rosewill mechanical with brown switches.

Das Keyboard 4 Professional with Brown MX switches. I used most of the key caps from my Cherry branded one because they letters were bigger, had Chinese characters next to them and were lower profile. Had to keep using a few of the longer key caps due to different stabilizers that weren't compatible with the old key caps.

Edit: I installed rubber o-rings to change the pitch of the keys to something not so intrusive. I'm still deciding if I like them as much as I did the blue MX switches. Those were my favorite.

I've never used a full keyboard with browns, but my separate number pad has them. It seems like they would be really easy to bottom out ... is that the case? There is definitely the tactile bump at the halfway point, but it's very light. I've never used blues but I have read that they have more of a pronounced halfway bump that also clicks. The clears on my board are supposed to be like the browns in that they don't click and like the blues in that they have a more pronounced tactile bump. I really like them, easy to type fast without bottoming keys out and just getting to the actuation point.
