Saitek Eclipse user for 2 years here.. And still happy with it. I dont see the need for extra programmable buttons and the bloatware it comes with it.

Ive had a good feel of the SteelSeries 7G Professional Gaming Keyboard, and my final thoughts are that its an uber SHIT keyboard. Sure it has features that traditional $15au keyboards have, and it comes in the stylish black colour! Ok, ok, it has multiple button responce, which is something most noncrappy keyboards have . . .

In the end, its simple. If your a gamer, you dont pick the SteelSeries 7G Professional Gaming Keyboard.

On that note, Ideazon's Merc Stealth Elite is by far the WORST keyboard created for the gamer . . . Like i mean, who on Earth would consider putting the TAB button next to the ALT button except a non gamer!

I personally use Ideazon's Ultimate Gaming Keyboard with a modified keysets for the various games i play. I like the butterfly keyset, thats about it.

Recently i purchased a Logitech G15 Revision 1.0 from EB Games. ( Old stock on hand still ). They had a price tag of $180 on it. I got them to call M.S.Y in Pascoe Vale which was selling a Revision 2 Keyboard for $89 and requested a price match :p
The sole reason i purchased the G15 Revision 1.0 is because a friend of mine suffered a stroke and is unable to make use of the right hand side of his body. The search of an ergonomic and suitable keyboard begun and ended shortly after i found out the ideal keyboard was now obsolete.
We are both happy we found one in stock :p

Razer make quality products. Everyone has their own style.
