Value and Conclusion

	The Ideazon MERC Gaming Keyboard can be had for around $30 in the US and for 40€s in Europe. This is quite an acceptable price for such a keyboard.
	Perfect layout for gaming Good build quality Good software Multimedia buttons Windows function buttons Pressing multiple buttons at once works.
	Labels may come off over time No back light for dark LAN Parties Rest of keyboard layout not complete Adjusting to new layout may take a while
9.2	Considering the price and simple but effective function of the Ideazon MERC Gaming Keyboard it is hard to give it anything else besides an Editor's Choice. It is the perfect accessory for any gamer, once you get used to the special butterfly layout. Playing first person shooters becomes much simpler, but it may be hard to adjust to the new key placement compared to an ordinary keyboard. Once the learning curve has been mastered using the MERC is a pure joy. Anyone who does not want to get rid of their old keyboard, should just grab the FANG gamepad.
