PREFACE

When I decided to replace my old standard Dell keyboard, I opted for an illuminated one. I settled on a choice of three, reading virtually every rating on the Cyborg P17UK and Logitech's G11 & G15 on several sites before finally selecting the Cyborg.

I use the Windows XP- 32 bit operating system. I am not a gamer anymore; but am an extensive user of productivity software and developer of sophisticated macros including using VBA and SQL, especially for MircoSoft Office products. I also use PhotoShop & Corel Draw as well as some audio editing software, and do some web programming with Java and HTML. I am not a touch typist, but no slouch either, and I do a lot of writing. So understand, my recommendations are from this perspective.

RECOMMENDATION:

In my opinion (IMAO), this is a sturdy, high quality board. Like many, I was torn between the G11, G15 and the Cyborg. All are roughly equivalent and, depending upon your needs, will... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Great keyboard that feels better than the g15, April 28, 2008

Overall I am quite happy with this keyboard in comparison with the "new" g15. The keys are easier to press and light up far more brightly than the g15. Being able to change the color scheme in the gaming mode really looks awesome. One point I do not like but most would is that in gaming mode the windows key press is cut from the keyboard meaning even if you have it disabled via your registry you cannot press the windows key which I use for skype, ventrilo and teamspeak. Some may complain of the spacebar but it feels fine except it feels as if it could become a sticky press down the line but overall not a significant problem. I can also press more than 3 keys at once and all the keystrokes will register in comparison with the eclipse 2. Great for gamers and for people who type frequently.

This keyboard is unbelievably cool.

This is a standard US keyboard, with the key layout being familiar to most. The keys are a standard height with a solid feel, as opposed to low profile scissor keys which some say have a faster response. In the end it is a matter of taste. This keyboard responds well, and has a low noise level, which makes for a wonderful typing experience.

This keyboard is bright, even in a well lighted room. Cyborg is unique in the the ability to switch colors, zones and brightness level. Of course, if you like blue, you might want a different keyboard, since blue is not an option.

Having metal keys seems to be a good idea, and while the keys wont break, more of the typing force should transfer itself more easily to the plastic keyboard underneath the keys, which could conceivably cause some damage. Of course, when or if that damage does occur, I will either would have died of old age, or would have bought a new keyboard, so I... Read more
