I use the a Unicomp (specifically http://pckeyboard.com/page/UKBD/UNIZPHA) at work and a Das Keyboard at home. I personally really prefer the Unicomp, it's got noticeably more "click" to it but is also quite a bit louder than my Das. It's really just personal preference, but the Unicomp keyboards are every bit as satisfying as you might hope.
