[ToBeMe]

I think that looks pretty damned useful!

 

[kami]

Wow! I like it... maybe its finally time to ditch this $5 4 year old POS keyboard. How much is it gonna cost?

 

[Cooltech2k]

I Think it would be great if they got rid of the extra strips of cral across the top, &amp; leftside/bottom...

Oh Wait than it would be just like my logitech...

 

[Wedesdo]

if it's free, i'll take it...

 

[frizzlefry]

Damn! Pretty nice layout. too bad its gonna tkae up alot of real estate......

 

[bigbootydaddy]

i think it looks pimp.

 

[brxndxn]

I want one with the space between the hands.... and more conservative use of precious desk space.

 

[Argo]

What's up with that F lock button? If it is what I think it is, it should be pretty convinient. Will save me 3 keystrock

 

[Hamburgerpimp]

Someone say pimp??

 

[bigbootydaddy]

F LOCK will lock the fkeys,such as f1, f2, etc, cuz if you look, they have replaced it with cntl commands.

alot of keys have migrated, look where insert is.., and the added undo redo, but im sure that wont work in quake 3.

 

[randomlinh]

ewww.. i like my ctrl-ins/shift/del methods

 

[psteng19]

where did the insert key above the directional arrows go?

I'm sorry, but I have to make an argument against the &quot;actually useful&quot; nature of this keyboard. Why does Microsoft insist on adding keyboard &quot;innovations&quot; with each (significantly) new version of Windows? They did it with Windows 95 and they added those Windows keys. I think that has been the worst &quot;innovation&quot; to keyboards because they just shrink the spacebar and move the Ctrl and Alt keys further apart. Are those damn things really necessary since most people use the mouse anyway? Now they feel the need to add even more useless keys--Undo &amp; Redo keys!?!? Come on! Isn't it easier to just hit Ctrl+Z or Ctrl+Y rather than lift your hand off the keyboard to reach for those damn keys? On the bright side, they got rid of one Windows key from the right side of the spacebar.

Okay, end of my rant. My bad.

Some of the buttons are useful while some others seem useless

I like the second backspace button, the cut copy paste buttons, and the back and forward.. but the first 8 buttons at the top are kinda useless

 

[LAUST]

Speaking of keyboards does anyone know of one thats backlit thats not $400 for hospitols and labs?

BTW I still have a nice old IBM WITHOUT windows keys.. I love this thing
