I'd kill for that keyboard though!

That specific keyboard may take some doing, but I suspect that you could get Cherry key caps in those colors, if it's the color aesthetic you like.

I just can feel the clickyness of it, but maybe hammering away at it daily wouldn't be so nice...

Good idea about the keycaps though! My keyboard has cherry browns so maybe I can make a look-alike ... Hmm...
