My son bought a mechanical keyboard online. He expected the package to arrive yesterday but it was brought to our house last Wednesday and I was the one who received it.
My son was so excited. He immediately opened his package, attached to his laptop and started to punch the keys. "Takatakatakatak "! He loves the sound of the keys.
I love it too. It sounds like the keys of a typewriter. I believe I read some comments here that say they use mechanical keyboard.
What sounds do you like to hear?

Before there was the keyboard I was using the typewriter. It's been in storage for years now since doing any typing job is more convenient with the computer. I'm not aware of this mechanical keyboard but your post makes me curious. Although I'm not sure I want my thoughts to compete with the "Takatakatakatak " sound

my son is a fast typist (in fact he won a contest in his sophomore high school as the fastest in typing in computer keyboard), and he loves hearing the keys.

@ilocosboy the receipt is not in the package, but the box is. it is k-28 mechanical backlighting gaming keyboard. i will ask my son when he comes home. i cannot text him because he has classes yet. but he told me it is below P2k; maybe P1,500+.

@ridingbet Not at all, it's not a loud sound, a lot less noisy than an old typewriter.

@LadyDuck my son, he is into the sound effects. when he types his thoughts out, it is non-stop.

I prefer the sound of silence when I work. That's a very colorful keyboard.

That must be a noisy kind of keyboard. How much was it? that reminds me to buy myself a new one, I've already lost five letters.

I miss the sounds the keys on an old typewriter used to make @ridingbet. So that must be fun to use. :)
