I use a Lenovo keyboard that came free with a PC. Its actually very good.

I have about 5 Samsung DT-35 Keyboards, I found a place online that use to sell them new for $6 USD, so I bought a bunch of them back when I played Frozen Throne and loved them. Until recently nothing was as good until my work bought new PCs which included this Lenovo keyboard. So far this keyboard is the best I've used and I had to buy one for myself.

I also got mine from machines purchased at work. I have a spare one in my closet at home because I liked it so much.
you think as i do

I just picked this keyboard up too, it's the best keyboard i've ever used.. and i've used alot of keyboards for gaming


I have been using this keyboard for awhile now and I like it a lot. I'm around 98-100 WPM usually. My apm is 120 T.T... I have used this keyboard since I started playing SC:BW with any degree of casual seriousness and I would have trouble going back to a regular keyboard with full-size keys.

However, I think I'm going to get a Filco Majestouch Tactile Click NKRO w/ Blue switches ( http://www.elitekeyboards.com/products.php?sub=filco_keyboards,majestouch_104key&pid=fkbn104mceb ) . Anyone else considering this or another mechanical keyboard at the moment?

The Logitech Illuminated uses scissor switches (laptop style) but I feel they aren't the highest quality. I've already busted off the r-ctrl key a bunch of times and while it still sits flat and types fine.. it is prone to popping off easier now. The low-profile keys tend to make typing fast I feel as the travel distance is low when pressed. Also moving the fingers across the keyboard is effortless since you hardly have to lift your fingers at all.

I actually ordered a Logitech G110 the other day (hasn't arrived) and I've already decided to return it immediately.

if macro boards are used by pro players then maybe it'll change things but until then, DT-35 ;D

The major advantage of gaming keyboards is "anti ghosting". This means that you can press as many keys at a time as there are keys.

I mainly feel that this is an issue when playing FPS games though. My current old HP keyboard works great for SC but when playing FPS games I can't sprint diagonally forward and then crouch (with shift+ctrl).

Yeah this is it lol you shouldn't run into the problem of having to hold down more then 3 keys in a rts game you're just tapping keys to build move or attack etc.

I have the Logitech G15. Didn't buy it for SC2 though, bought it a couple years ago. Actually only picked it up because my IBM model M died after 15 great years of use (1993) and figured that hey while I'm buying a new one might as well get a top-of-the-line board.

I miss my IBM though. Now that was a man's keyboard and I was quite attached to it after all that time. Hell I grew up with that keyboard, lol.

does anyone know of a keyboard that has the f keys directly above the number keys? seems like every keyboard has that gap and slight shift to the keys... maybe im OCD but id love a keyboard that has f1 above 1, f2 above 2, etc etc

I have the creative fatal1ty that Ive nearly killed, I think I am going to order a filco this summer.

Only because I cant really find another one of these. Good deal for 50 bucks imo.

I own the Majestouch Tactile Touch NKRO with Cherry Brown switches and it is the best keyboard I have ever used/owned. I have previously owned a just as expensive Razer keyboard and it feels squishy and cheap in comparison (it also broke).

The Filco keyboard is solid as a rock, the keys are fun to press. I used it for work also (programming) and I never get sore fingers/wrists like I did with my older membrane keyboards.

If you get a mechanical keyboard you will not regret it. Worth every cent.

Also make sure you get the red escape key because it is 100% pimp.

Filco keyboards are very similar in feel to Model M's if you are interested. I think Cherry Blue switches would be most similar but you would have to look it up.

I got a Filco brown switch keyboard due to this thread. Well Not entirely due to this thread, I needed a new keyboard anyways.

Either way I just got it in the mail and it is a dream so far. I'm still adjusting to the different key sizes, my old keyboard was a g15 and has kinda funky key spacings. Already though I'm loving it for Sc2 though. I tend to lightly press keys so having some brown switches without a 'bump' and the mechanical key benefit of the activation point being 1/2 press really helps. On my g15 I'd have problems at the start where I'd press s-d and the woudln't register because of the way I press, not so with this new baby.

Also it's really not that loud other than the space bar which is a different switch I believe.


I'll also give a thumbs up to my old g15 it served me well. The macro keys were annoying, though useful for non-gaming tasks like renaming a bunch of files, or spamming /refresh for pre-game DotA. I did find the keyspacings and resistance pretty nice, especially the escape key which is moved in slightly to be easier to hit. It's overly expensive for what you use it for, but it's nice if you don't mind. I had won mine, well 3 of them, in my only RTS prize winnings to date (in Rise of Legends lol) so it's a little sad to see it go, but hey I love the new Filco.

Anyways this may seem kinda pointless, but just wanted to chime in supporting mechanical keyboards.
