I just bought a usb keyboard the Logitech K120 to take the place of a wireless one that came with my computer that was starting to have issues. So far this new keyboard is pretty awesome. Does anyone else here have any thoughts or experience with this keyboard???

It is usually the keyboard I include when I build computers for clients. It is a basic keyboard, it gets the job done.

Pretty basic keyboard, not sure what to say.
Almost non existant grip (better than some chinese keyboards), the raisers are pretty flimsy - easily break - rage quit beware, I like the typing feel, thinner keys than usual, cheap lettering.

I prefer its slightly more expensive sibling, the K200. Media keys are located on the left side of keyboard, perfect for typing IMHO. And those calculator shortcut key? a blessing.

a budget KB for sure but sufficient for the basics....hardcore/power users and gamers will laugh at it though :)

I have 2 of the wireless K520 combos that work pretty well for me and were reasonably priced. Still not a gamers board but I don't do games, so that part is irrelevant to me anyways...

I had this at work. I didn't like the typing feel and the nonstandard top row. It's not bad for the money I guess but I replaced it with some HP keyboard that feels better to type on but is also more expensive.

It's a surprisingly good keyboard for a cheap rubber dome one, if I'm being honest. I had to live with one for a few weeks during a road trip due to it being light and easy to carry with my system. I'd be lying if I said I really was hindered by it. And it's cheap as dirt...

I'm comparing it to ones with mechanical switches, which often cross the $100 barrier.

One of the best budget KBs really. Full sized width, standard full sized office type key layout, and nice ergo shaped bottom row keys, which I love. The latter is getting VERY hard to find in the under $15 price point.

OK, that's about all the kissing up you can do for a budget peripheral. Any more and I'd be jinxing it.

BTW, just don't get a phone at Wal-Mart. Thieves tend to rifle through them and steal the batteries, and their CS counter isn't too understanding when you bring one back, other than to imply you'll have to do some rifling yourself if you want to exchange it and not wind up with the same problem. I call it the Wal-Mart look, you know, that snotty "Does it look like I have time to find you a good one?" attitude.
