Looking to Buy a New Keyboard

I'm looking to buy a new keyboard in the future (as soon as I have money

).

I've been looking at two different keyboards I like, does anyone have any suggestions?

Here's the two I like:

Zboard - The Ultimate Gaming Keyboard

Saitek Eclipse Night-Vision Red

First of all, what's so good about the second besides the glowing thing?
The first one's cool, and it can be changed to the standard key set too, so...

Heh, I know. But it glows. And I'm too lazy to get up from my chair to turn on the light when there isn't any sunlight left. And it glows.

But you're probably right. I like the gaming keyboard.

And I'll reply to your PM in moments.

And you better reply. I'm getting boreded.

They are not bad, except that it has a wire, I hate wire keyboards.

Especially when you don't have enough room. Like when you want to place the joystick in front of ya xD
You have to move the keyboard.

Do you get a mouse with those keyboards?

Keep in mind for the ZBoard, you will have to buy a new keyboard layout for each game you want to play. If you are not going to spend the extra money on all the layouts (and not every game will have one), then why get a keyboard whose main feature is changable layouts?

I've never understood why people want lighted keyboards. My monitors/LCD screens have always provided me with enough light...

Before you buy a keyboard, you should decide:
What you want to do with it
How long do you expect to have it
How much are you willing to spend on it

I use a Wolf Claw Type 1 keyboard. It is a lot easier to play FPS on it than standard keyboards. The delete key gave me a pause before buying it, but I've discovered having the delete key right next to the arrows makes it much easier to fix typing mistakes.

One feature I really like about my keyboard, is "cut", "copy", and "paste" shortcuts.
makes my modding work easier.

Its humble but I like it

Z13, did you get a new one yet?

My keyboard's nice. If I find a pic, I'll post it.

Dohnutt, notice in the first post when I said, "When I have money."

Plus I procrastinate. And I still owe my Dad $100 for my laptop.

Hehe. Yeah, when I read a post, I don't really read it. I just kinda skim through it and pick out words. Then I put'em together. And it turns out to be like, "Looking to buy future. I have money. Different suggestions,".

Yeah, when I don't pay up for something, my parents just go into my room and take the money from my wallet
