Das Keyboard Waking Up Computer

This is my third Das Keyboard product. Lost the first in a fire, and am using the second one on a secondary computer. Bought the Prime 13 for the Cherry brown switches and the keyboard back-lighting. As mechanical keyboards go, I don't think a better one exists. It's not as loud as the Cherry red switches in my old Pro Red model, but I added some MX rubber switch dampeners to make it a little quieter, anyway. It's nearly as quiet as a membrane keyboard now.

The Das Keyboard 4 Pro (Cherry MX Brown switches) is a sheer pleasure to work with. The weight of the keyboard keeps it stable on the desk, and the feel of the keys is satisfying. The keyboard is far from silent, but that is the nature of mechanical keyboards, and the sound is not outrageously loud. The tactile nature of click-click-click of the volume knob is just fun.

This is my second Das Keyboard 4 Professional--the first went to my wife's computer when I rebuilt and upgraded it. This latest model is equipped with the new footbar that has rubber feet, a great improvement in eliminating the tendency for the keyboard to slide around. I contacted Das Keyboard about purchasing the new footbar for our first keyboard. They responded by agreeing to ship one free of charge. The only downside to these keyboards is the ABS keys will wear shiny and the letters dim after awhile. The solution� is purchasing a set of Doubleshot PBT key caps from WASD Keyboards.com. PBT keycaps don't wear and the letters fade as with ABS keycaps and will permanently restore the keyboard to its original glory.

I use as a DAS for my computer. From what I can tell Qnap is the only one right now that offers this as a DAS (computer) or extended storage on you NAS.

the computer was everything they promised. Up and running with no problems

Tired of mushy keyboards? Look no further. The Das Keyboard 4 Professional with Cheery MX Blue switches is the way to go. I've always liked the experience typing on a solid mechanical keyboard, but I could never justify the extra cost. I thought I was being silly even considering the expense. Now, I wish I spent the money years ago. This thing feels so solid under your hands and it has some heft when you pick it up. It's extremely well made. The typing experience is second to none. Don't put it off like I did for years. Treat yourself to the Das Keyboard and you won't look back!

My previous keyboard was a Realforce Topre keyboard (8 years). Moving to the Das with Cherry MX Brown switches has been a pleasant change.

I had heard of DAS before but I had no idea that they had something other than Line Arrays. This sounds like a REAL Das setup at a size I can take with me to all event. Really worked out for me

Light weight, easy to carry your gear waking around.

Up until the purchase of this keyboard I was using the built in keyboard on my laptop. I recently began a new job that provided this keyboard and as soon as I used it I knew I had to have it for my home use! (I am a full time student who is in a degree that requires a large amount of writing.) The keys have a good amount of travel and a very satisfying touch response, with just the right amount of noise, not too loud at all for a mechanical keyboard. I can use this for hours and hours and not feel uncomfortable! HIGHLY recommend.
