Keyboard time :)

[mrapoc]

Got some cash to spare

The old saitek eclipse is a bit old now, keys sticking, paint coming off etc.

Time for an upgrade

After something comfy, media keys would be cool, backlighting not a must but would be alright

Maybe wireless as long as batteries are rechargeable/last ages but again no preference

budget,my 5pound keysonic one is doing me fine

What sort of price you looking at?

 

[mrapoc]

Dunno about £30? Something that will last/easy to clean/not get manky/keys wont rub off

Maybe that? I have the Saitek Eclipse 2 and it's brilliant. And as you had one before, I assume you are willing to go Saitek again?

Saitek Eclipse 2 was rubbish for me, the key paint came off rather quick. Get an Apple aluminum.

You mean the black came off??

Oh looking at your budget I can't recommend my 7G. It's a super nice keyboard, nothing fancy on it, but smooth typing and very comfy.

the apple aluminium kb doesnt look too comfy

is it full profile too?

It's a great keyboard and cheap.... sooo nice to type on I tell you. I've had many keyboards in the past and this one is definately the best.

Here it is for you to see:

Yea the Apple Keyboard is a smexy keyboard. It is full profile. It's very low profile too so it's comfy to use and your not having to bend your wrists up very much.

Location: United Kingdom!!! xD

As for keyboards I can recommend the logitech G-series but they are a bit over budget, aren't they?

[siravarice]

Well tbh, I played for many hours with it, strafe jumpin and trickjumping has never been so easy... even the Saitek gaming keyboard couldn't match it... honestly no word of a lie

 

[AMDFTW]

fair enough

 

[mrapoc]

[Steve-O-]

Yes.

 

[mrapoc]
