Excellent Keyboard for the price
Customer Rating: 
I bought this keyboard because my old one was wearing out and I was getting a new computer. I have never owned a "gaming" keyboard before, so I have nothing to compare it to. I rarely play video games, so it's gaming attributes never appealed to me. However, what did appeal to me was the multitude of macro keys and the removable number-pad.
I work as a Visual Effects Designer, so the idea of being able to use macro keys to replace the multitude of shortcuts I have to use is excellent. What was even better was that the number-pad could be on the left or right side or not even be attached at all. While I work, I use the number-pad constantly, so the ability to use the number-pad with my left hand on the left side of the keyboard (leaving my right hand free with the mouse) is excellent.
Another nice thing is that the keyboard is only 16.5 inches long without the number-pad. It fits into my backpack perfectly, so I can take it wherever I want.
However, this keyboard is not without it faults.
The most annoying aspect is the non-removable (obviously) wrist rest. My hands are rather large, so my wrists hang off the edge of the keyboard about 1 inch, which makes it very uncomfortable to type sometimes.
Another thing is that this keyboard has red LEDs. It isn't the end of the world, but all of my gear that has LEDs lights up blue. So this big red keyboard sits in the middle of a sea of blue.
My last issue with this keyboard is the software and lack of on-board memory. First, you can't save your profile to the keyboard, so when you move to a different computer, you can't take your settings and macros. Second, the software that runs this keyboard is pretty dull. It gets the job done, but I wish they had taken some more time with it and made it a little cleaner and look nicer like Razer did.
All in all, this keyboard is very nice and I would gladly recommend it to anyone who asks.
