Post by surfgeko » Sat Feb 03, 2007 8:00 pm

Hey allz, ever since my old fancy logitech keyboard died, i've been using this old crapper from 100 years ago. I am gonna get a new keyboard soon, any suggestions? (i'll prolly wait for a good one to go on sale) But i want to see wat u guys think.

Just got the g15 the other night, replaced my 5+yr old microsoft kb. It's nice, only issue I have with it is I'm so used to having my left hand at the edge of the board, but because of the g keys it's quite a ways in, and the keys are a little smaller. Probably just take a little time to get used to. The g keys are really useful though as it's much quicker to use them for all my various editing software then to go through and click crap.

And thankfully no f-lock key. :wtg:

Hell I use an OLD Dell keyboard I got from work, the old clack it clack ones with half the letters rubbed off. Drives my roommate insane :wall: (he can not type). It just feels better to my touch, it feels like I am typing. I grew up with old elec. typewriters.

Wowza, that G15 looks a tad over-the-top to be honest. I've got an illuminated one, shortened, metal case, ultra thin, soft keys like on a laptop, i love it!
