It's a legit place - they only sell one thing at a time, and for a limited time however.

 

[brxndxn]

how quiet is the keyboard? I hate loud keyboards

 

[glorygunk]

woot.com is all right...it does indeed look shady at first glance but it's legit. plus you can get some pretty awesome deals there

 

[llars]

Woot is very legit. If you don't want to take my word for it, search the hot deals forum for woot and you will get all the proof you need.

*attempts to hypnotize others*
Woot is a very shady place. Please stay away from their deals. You don't want to shop there as they'll screw you. Only I should shop there...

 

[Otaking]

Edit: Well, it's not like I needed yet *another* keybaord...

 

[EKKC]

wow there's people who dont know about woot?

 

[PawNtheSandman]

Hope you guys realize this is the OLD backlit version, not the new one with the backlit letters that Woot had back a few months ago for $50.

I don't understand why it only has USB I know everything is USB these days but why waste your USB ports on a keyboard or mouse when they have their own ps2 ports that nothing else uses I dont understand.

Cause you've got 8 USB ports and only 7 ipods.

You obviously don't like to waste periods either!

I believe it ships with a USB to PS/2 adapter so you can use the PS/2 port instead of the USB port if you like. If you are limited on USB ports, then buy a USB hub. You can literally have over 100 USB ports if you daisy-chain enough USB hubs so it's not likely that you will be USB port limited if you care to invest in a USB hub or two (hundred).

wasn't it $35? I am pretty sure that's what I paid when they had the eclipse...

Does a PS/2 port provide enough power for a backlit keyboard? That might be why it's USB native. I don't know.

That would be a kickass keyboard if it were cordless!

Because those ports are useless if everything can be USB. Motherboards = cheaper if they don't have to have special connector ports for old/inferior hardware.
