I am really starting to like the topre switches the more I use them. Enough that I look forward to sitting down in my cubicle at work and doing anything that requires typing.
I don't feel like I am as agile with them as my blackbird with cherry browns but I prefer them for regular typing so far.

The board feels like quality, it's a little hefty for it size, but anything crazy and the rubber pads really do a great job from preventing it from moving around, with or without the feet extended. It's has been taking a little while to get used to not having the F keys, but I don't miss the rest of the keys much if at all.
The only issue I have had so far is trying to do Ctrl-Shift-Esc. This command will not work because Shift-Esc doubles as ~. This may not sound horrible as you can create a shortcut with a hot key of Ctrl-Shift-~ to get around the issue, but I am finding it painful at work due to the large amount of VM's I have to connect to. If Leupold made a 87 key topre I think it would be an awesome keyboard.
