That's actually very nice to hear. But my roots in Stepmania come in the form of non-mechanical keyboards; I started out with a Logitech (this one stopped working by way of it shorting out), then moved on to Microsoft (this one didn't have a USB connection), and then onto the Nexxtech that I'm currently using (which kind of looks like the Ultra X Flat). I've never used a mechanical keyboard to play Stepmania (or for that matter, I've never used or seen a mechanical keyboard, period), but I really want to. I've never even considered buying this kind of keyboard until a short time ago, to be completely honest. But I do want to join this "club" sometime soon.
