 Great gift February 25, 2010
I bought this as a gift for my tech savvy brother who likes to play a lot of computer games. He did a lot of research on what he wanted before picking this out and he seems to really love it.
quality keyboard January 7, 2010
This keyboard was purchased as a gift for my son and he loves it. He has researched keyboards for months and this was his keyboard of choice. It works great and he loves the look. The customer service was great as well, it came quickly and in perfect condition.

Great board but a tad bit pricey for what you actually get out of it.
Do I like this board ? November 2, 2009

Yes I do. I looked at a few before buying, and read several reviews between different ones. The reviews I read about this board in a negative way...Are totally wrong. Everything worked excellent, and the software is very easy to install. All you have to do is read it as you install it, and you won't have any errors or mistakes. One review said don't even install the software. WELL, if you don't, the cool volume control WILL NOT WORK. That tells me right there that they don't pay attention to instructions, and should have not put that on their review. I don't work for these people, or get a cut to say these things. It's just what I see, and how it works for me... I had no problems at all with that. As far as the silver covered keys being slick, or different ? I find that not a problem at all. The extra lighted in bold area around those wasd keys help a great deal also. Unless this thing just up and takes a dump, I do not have anything bad to say about it, or it's features at this point. I'm glad they came up with this key board...
PS: They ask if it's cheaply made ? Well, the only part I see is the inside section plastic where it bolts to the upper portion. That clear plastic is very brittle. It had some small cracks around a couple of the screws that mount it. Probably from flexing when assembled and moved. I know this because I spilled some coca-cola on the keys, and had to get the pop out before it dried.
Tip, if your keys stick...like some reviews say, it's because you have junk around the under part of the keys. There's no way they can stick, other than that.
 Cheaply made October 17, 2009

This is the first review I've made on Amazon, and there is a reason. I normally don't have anything to add because the reviews are spot on.
I bought this keyboard because of the reviews written here and elsewhere, but ignored the odd mention of the keyboard being cheaply made. Boy did I regret that. My first keyboard worked for a few days, then the left shift key gave out. Amazon was fantastic and replaced it right away for me. My second keyboard was only a month old when I started having issues again with a key not working. The backspace of all keys stopped working!
I was not pounding on these keys playing intense games. In fact, I was only using this keyboard to type emails, create proposals and some graphic design. I'm to busy with work to be playing games at this time. Owning two keyboards in less than two months that went bad is rare but it happened.
The software that comes with this keyboard is lacking too. It is not easy to setup, and work with.
I think the keyboard would be great if they didn't cheat on quality. When you pay what they want for this, you should get a better quality keyboard. I own keyboards that are 10 years old that still work, and they were CHEAP! No excuses on this keyboard. It should be built better.
Buy at your own risk.
(Proud owner of the Logitech G15 Gaming Keyboard (Black) - much nicer keyboard. First time owning it, and love it.)
