I know many people think a keyboard is a keyboard is a keyboard, but that is just not true. The quality of the materials, feel of the keys, simplicity, and size all make the filco special. I have never heard anybody say they regret the purchase or have gone back to their old keyboard. | ||

Also maybe the sound of the keyboard can help increase play, as some click and can be a reminder to keep your APM up or a reminder to keep active during a game. (at least for me coz im p-bad) | ||

They have at some points in time, but there aren't any available right now. They also have blank replacement keycap sets sometimes. They work with 104 key or tenkeyless layouts.

I think your head is too far up your ass. It's like people who own Ferrari and can't stand it when anyone points out the flaws in a Ferrari, Mechanical keyboards are a waste of money for people who strictly just do gaming. They are fine for people who type a ton but a proper ergonomic keyboard would do them better as they can type longer. | ||

The flaws in a Ferrari are that it's not a good transporter. It costs a lot. Suspension is not really comfortable. But for racing, it's a damn fine machine. A ergo keyboard is fine for what it is but for your fingers a mechanical keyboard is still king. Simply feels great once your have gotten used to it. Even if mine is a bit stiff and I will go for a FILCO brown at one point. As in regards to gaming, depends. A Korean pro spends so much time behind his keyboard, it's somewhat important for him. Also, a good mecha feels faster. I kid you not. I'm certain that not all people can appreciate a good mecha. Well, I couldn't appreciate a Ferrari the way my skills are. But that won't stop me from recognizing it's a fine machine and that it's nice to sit in one next to someone who CAN use it. question: My G80-3000 has a slighty metallic sound when typing, as if I hear the springs. Is this from the build or do you also hear that with the FILCOs?? | ||

Probably be worse on the sides of the keyboard. Bring the keyboard up to your ear and just start hitting keys moving up the keyboard | ||

As for gaming benefits, I wouldn't really count on a speed argument. It's more of a "finger comfort" thing than anything else. If your train yourself to not bottom out you will have nice profit of comfort and a tad of speed. Also feels much nicer than a dome keyboard. For FPS, I just dunno. The rts benefit comes from the typing like action but in an FPS, I think I'd actually prefer a very good dome keyboard with ultra short ways. Getting my dream dome tomorrow so I'll report back ;-) | ||
