Umm, I don't quite see point of having super-set and sub-set in same poll. Doesn't Majestouch 2 family include ninja too?

It's what people voted for.

WASD is by far the most interesting new keyboard but I have to vote Filco or lose Fanboi status.

I vote G80-3000, because my G80-3000 has Cherry MX Clears and you can't get a Filco or WASD with them.
It also cost me a third of the price, and the Cherry keyboards provide lots of great, inexpensive, compatible key caps for it (PBT or thick double-shots ABS), well.. at least if you live in Europe like I do.

I like plate mounted more, atleast on full size, there is bit too much flex on G80-3000, and keycaps don't come off nicely ;D

I second that - bought two of them in 2011.

You get what you pay for with regard to the case and PCB-mounted switches, but the keyboard works as good and lasts as long as the more expensive keyboards out there.

I vote for the WASD v1, (my sister bought one) its solidly built and you can easily customize it when you order.

I bet this is the "Filco Majestouch 2 family" keyboard:

It looks a bit like Phantom 7BIT layout.

Anyway, I go for the Ninja.

This is for starcraft. It has keycaps for matrix keybinds :)

Doubt it, the function keys are too far apart from the main section of the keyboard. Using your location would be so much harder and impractical. Marcoing would be harder! D: Or perhaps its just my view on that dinosaur keyboard.

"Regular keyboard" makes me think of something completely different than the poll choices...
