Should I buy a mechanical keyboard or an Apple Keyboard?

I have a question for you all tech people. I'm trying to decide on what I should buy... a Ducky Shine 3 or an Apple Keyboard with numeric keypad

Prices

140.99 Ducky Shine 3

49.99 Apple Keyboard with Numeric Keypad

The mechanical keyboard is backlit and offers laser etched keys with tactile feedback, the apple keyboard is super thin and looks sturdier.

Does anybody know when Apple will release a backlit keyboard?

    Apple by its hardware and application licensing methodology and trade practices believes in complete manipulate over their merchandise. That is why they don't permit clones or utilising their application on some thing instead of apple branded hardware. Considering of this and the dedicated following they have got they are able to dictate market stipulations and sell their products for some thing they feel the market will bear. Should you had been Apple and you might sell your laptops for a top rate knowing that the general public would still purchase them for the inflated fee would not you? The overwhelming percent of Mac customers will tell you that Apple merchandise are superior but in case you push them they can't say why. Its in most cases because they follow the developments. I agree that Mac has sophisticated marketing and cooler designs, however if you happen to research the hardware disorders that Apple has you would recognize that virtually each product they make has a serious flaw that had to be corrected after product release. Oh, and recall that a brand new Mac has little or no program bundled so add that to the fee of a new unit. I don't want to begin a war right here, but actually neither Apple nor laptop is healthier. All of it is determined by what you plan on making use of the pc for. If you are a gamer, then a Mac is a horrible option. When you do photo design then you should utilize either, however the Mac has an facet. In case you are a traditional dwelling consumer then either will work great and that you may purchase something you wish to have or what your budget will allow.

    Ducky keyboards are very durable while the Apple keyboard you are look at my school computer lab has and does not feel very durable.

    Mechanical keyboard are the best, I love the key switches, especially the blues for typing and browns for gaming. That apple keyboard uses laptop like scissor key switches and feel very cheap.

    The only thing worse than having a product made by Apple (some factory in China) is having rectum cancer, enough said.
