They're noisy, clacky, impossible to use in an office, in your house without headphones, perhaps even annoying neighbours, need effort to make them work on USB, so why do people love them so much?

I've tested two. Didn't like them because sometimes if you don't hit the keys head on, they move a bit to the side with the spring and that's jarring on your fingers.

Where do you stand on the debate?

Also, first post, so what better a topic!

I like them the best. Nothing has yet to beat buckling springs for switches and the caps and case of a model M are pretty damn good too. Other than the plastic rivets they are damn near perfect. A lot of modern keyboards have tight small metal cases that don't sound nearly as nice as the one on the model M. That being said, if you don't love them then that is ok too.
