Why would anyone bother getting a "good" keyboard? I think a decent one is a just fine, you don't get more precision like you do with a better mouse so what's the point.

if you're just looking for performance then all you need is one of these http://shop.ebay.com/?_nkw=logitech+g1
you're paying for features and ergonomics not precision

you're paying for features and ergonomics not the ability to press every key simultaneously because you don't want to buy a beatmania controller

it is pretty much the cheapest mechanical keyboard you can get.
and it looks and feels good without you having to paint it.
and it has some nice features like the macros, backlight (off/dimm/light/bright/"breathing"), USB and mic/hf jack
>> ID: 798482 0 No. 8977
but really if you want a nice keyboard and not a model m for whatever reason but not fucking das expensive there are actually quite a lot of options that i'm not familiar with these days

a g15 on ebay is probably a pretty good option if you don7t want to spend too much as i don't think there's anything mechanical under $60, and i know people that have gone from a model m to a g15 and not regretted it
i've heard fairly good things about blackwidow and sidewinder x6.
also the steelseries 6Gv2 but that's approaching das prices
>> ID: aa38bb 0 No. 8988
>>8955
i got my model m for 3 american dollars

speaking from experience macros keys are borderline useless, i only ever used them to spam shit in chat

i couldnt imagine how fuckin bad the mic/hf jacks on a keyboard would, thats like worse than using onboard fuck

Sidewinder x6 is pretty great for ~$80, all the keys are backlit and being able to move or ditch the numpad helps when you're shuffling around tablets and joysticks and whatever.

Also the picture lies the numpad is red not yellow.

if you want a good keyboard get something with cherry switches. otherwise you're an ignorant plebe

i like the q&a section

You are a genius.
Thanks.

Why isn’t there any Linux software?
Because first we want to let 95% of people to work with the keyboard.

bumping this ridiculously old thread to post this: http://deals.woot.com/deals/details/88656b26-9dd9-484c-a6c8-1e3b57b006b8/razer-usa-blackwidow-mechanical-gaming-keyboard#2

The design/font choice for the button is obviously really takei but it's got the same switches you'll find in all the $100+ mech. keyboards. Pretty decent deal imo.

Anything with Cherry MX black switches

I got my Ducky 1008 in the mail today with the Cherry MX Blues.

If you order them from PChome, a Chinese website, you can get one for 65 + 10$ express shipping anywhere in the world.

Anyone have an opinion on this keyboard? I know it hasn't been released yet, but what are your thoughts on the specs?
