I am looking for a keyboard that I can user either at home or at work (primarily work, as I have a HORRIBLE old Dell keyboard there). As such, blue switches are right out. I was thinking about either red or brown switches.

My options at the moment are the Ducky Shine 4, Das Ultimate 4 (I LOVE the stealthy look), the Razer Blackwidow Ultimate, or the Code Clear.

Does anyone have some useful guidance on helping me choose between these? I do a lot of typing, whether it is writing reports, coding, you name it. I want something that looks awesome, and is comfortable. Backlighting isn't hugely important (though if I replace my Logitech G510 at home at some pt, it might be more important), but if it looks nice, I'm good :)

I like the stealthy look of the DAS. However, a lot of people have told me that the keyboard quality has suffered since they changed manufacturers.

Interesting. I can't comment on this, as I did not know they had.

From what I know, it is a fantastic board with good build quality.

If it is quality you want, the Steelseries 7G feels like it was milled out of a solid block of Adementium (what wolverine's claws are made of).
