That's what it feels like. My last keyboard, a Microsoft (-Hate!) Reclusa (- yup, funny name), was in a absolutely torrid state. Most of the lettering on the keys had peeled away within three months of ownership. I was very **** angry, due largely because I failed to keep aside the receipt . And in turn my warranty.

Anyway, I have this quality thing, and it's awesome. I really  took my time getting a new one, when I should have got a decent keyboard ages ago given the state the Reclusa was in.

This is a really good Keyboard, I love it already.

Best keyboard is the one from the early 90's. The one's that sounded perfect when you typed with them

Yea been using mine for about a year or so soon I think. This keyboard only gets better and better the more you get used to it. Much like the Boomslang / Diamondback mice.

I considered a Lycosa but for $80 and a whole bunch of complaints I decided it wasn't worth it. I got a Logitech UltraX instead for less than $20, although it lacks the backlight.

It looks nice. I have a Eclipse II and stopped using it after a month -- one of the light options didn't work (broken). I contacted them and they said to send it in, but I was too lazy. I might use it again. The real appeal of that keyboard you are reviewing is the AWSD cluster. Sweet.

It does take some getting used to. I'm using mine with a  Razer DeathAdder mouse, they seem like a perfect match..

It can take some time to get used to a new key board, especially if a large difference exists between the two models. Its quite aesthetically pleasing at any rate, with a certain style augmented by that eminently blue glow.

@Gary -

There is definitely a large difference between my last Keyboard, for one I had no letters on my last, lol.

From a Blog I did a while back-

So I got this Microsoft Reclusa Keyboard a little while back and soon after getting it I realized that one of the letters was flaking away. After only 6 fucking months of ownership my Keyboard now looks like this. The quality is fucking appalling given it's expensive cost. Microsoft are dirty *****!.

The keys on this one seem very lower in comparison, in fact I can see they are by looking at the pics alone. I am making a few typos here and there but I am getting used to it.
