Same here, hahaha. I have these loud, leaf-spring keyboards that I use when nobody else is around (which is seldom), because they are loud as hell.
(I have three such keyboards, all slightly different. This may indicate a "problem".)
^I love my mechanical (DasKeyboard) keyboards

It's like tasting decent scotch for the first time. One can't then return to the whiskey equivalent of plonk.
When I connect one of these to my MBP, my typing speed and accuracy roughly doubles. But that racket . . .

feck, feck, feck. I have no idea I needed one of them until now…..

Take a look at The Keyboard Company @Giles.
If you want to get really geeky then there are different types of switches. I've got one with the Cherry Blues, which are like the old school IBM keyboards.
And if you want an old IBM model, the Keyboard Company carries them.

I'd be going http://www.daskeyboard.com/daskeyboard-4-professional-for-mac/ in Cherry Brown (less clickly, same feeling). Still like IBM feeling, and keeps the sanity of those around you :). I use brown @ work and blue @ home. Mrs Snowy wishes I'd bring the brown home

I've got a BluetoothMajestouch Minila keyboard. I don't use number pads, so prefer a more compact design.
-
@tmg there's also a very nice wooden wrist rest for the Minila. Not that I'm trying to push you over the edge, or anything…

How can you run a business so incompetently, that one week you're running employees into the ground at 70+ hours a week and the next not have enough orders to produce a 40 hour week? I understand a port strike has had adverse consequences on business, but you can't honestly expect to keep people like this. Glad I'm already looking elsewhere

Right now I am writing the most boring "dissertation" ever. The subject is quality control (EN ISO 9000 ff for example), due Friday.
-
Sympathies, I have a 9 hour IOSH training course tomorrow hosted by the worlds most boring man
-
I feel so sorry for you, I have something similar on Thursday AND Friday.
-
I don't know about you, but my plan is lots of coffee and sugar…...all day.
-
Coffee at my school… Well, I would not call it coffee. I don´t think they use water. Or coffee.
-
…well...quality management and control is my job...
But somehow I survive

Our system run amuck @jdl1279. People are the least of their concerns.

That's my plan everyday. And I'm still rolling at 3am. I don't understand it.
-
And laid off…arrrgggghhh!!! At least I now know it to be a port strike as the culprit. Seems we haven't been getting some of the materials required for production and management chose not to say anything down line. I wanted to find something else anyway, but not how I would've liked it to go down
