I own a G15 and tried using the keys for macro and it does not work that well, maybe in early game but absolutley not in late. But i love the display for my winamp, instant messanger, teamspeak, email.. etc etc

I made a suggestion for a *really* useful feature for the G15. You could make an applet that uses the display to teach you buildorders (shows when to build what) and warns you (mutas/dts could come in X seconds, build ebay). Sure, this would be cheating, but for training purposes it would be okay i think.
Someday, you’re going to fuck up so magnificently, so ambitiously, so overwhelmingly that the sky will light up and the moons will spin and the gods themselves will shit comets with glee. And I just hope I’m still around to see it.

Pretty sure you can do this with any other keyboard, just need proper software. remapping F1-F4 aint too uncomfortable.
Also, LOGITECH ULTRA-X keyboard FTW.

I have this keyboard (Logitech G15 right) and those macro keys are just useful in RPGs etc. I used them a lot when I played The Witcher, which was absolutely great.

But using them for Starcraft? no, I tried that as well but the only useful macro I have is one to make interceptors for carriers and... that's about it.
Huge fan of JulyZerg, HonestTea and that guy Kim Taek Yong.

I have this keyboard and I don't use it for Starcraft.. Oh damn *looks up at the post above me* he said the same thing.

edit: the only macros I have for SC are for spamming stuff before the game starts I honestly think depending on macros for SC would just be a hassle, and I'd rather just play normally :X and for the games I DO want to use macros on, Gamegaurd prevents me from using it lol

Anyone can afford an $80 keyboard? You can get a whole computer that can run SC for less than that.

Imagine how it feels to drop a cup of tea on it
Also, if you own it, don't you ever attempt to dismantle it - chances are, you won't be able to connect display properly >_>

Though, using macro keys for shortcuts is pretty neat feature. You can bind "teamliquid.net" to g1, your favorite winamp playlist to g2 and starcraft.exe to g3, and basically start your every day with g1-g2-g3

btw dunno if this has been mentioned yet but you can get the G11 for like $50 or less depending on where you go, and it's pretty much the EXACT same keyboard as the G15 only without the (imo) completely useless LCD screen. It's literally the exact same keyboard with the exact same functions, only cheaper.

There would be no point in playing the game with keys like those :S

IT wouldn't be as fun if you ever mastered them... its cheating
