I don't think those would work for a Filco, though. Yes, they both use Cherry MX switches, but they still have different key shapes. | ||

I just cant stand how close those Makro keys are to the regular keys and I keep hitting them very often accidently. I miss the orientation on this Layout. Also as a student I need to be able to type a while on it, but the keys are very hard to press and its getting pretty hard after 1-2 hours. Though I loved the rest of the keyboard. And I'm looking for another one with the following conditions: - Media keys, including Volume regulation - At least 1 USB slot - Luminated - No keys on the left side of the keyboard - Easier to press Has anyone any suggestions? I'm really frustrated, that I cant find any keyboard with those conditions... | ||

Ch4ppi i would suggest a Steelseries 7g but its not illuminated to be honest theough i think u will have a better feel with a unicomp board they are based on the ibm model m and have a great feel to them. http://steelseries.com/products/keyboards/steelseries-7g same as mine but i have the blank keys | ||

Besides that, ch4ppi, based on his requirements, seems to be looking for a more "modern" keyboard that you'd normally associate with gaming keyboards (illumination, extra USB ports, etc.). A keyboard with buckling springs just isn't appropriate for those needs at all. Ch4ppi, I think you'd be best off looking at some Razer keyboards, like the new Blackwidow that is a mechanical keyboard with Cherry Blue switches. It's backlit and has all that extra stuff. The Das keyboard is one of the more popular mechanical keyboards, but some people aren't too happy with the build quality (mind you, people say that about Razer even more). I'm not sure if they have backlit ones, though. The ever popular and legendary Filcos are great and probably the most highly recommended, but they don't have extra ports or illumination. I think the "Decks" have most of what you want, but I honestly don't know much about those at all. If you're looking for a non-mechanical keyboard, Razer is probably still a good place to look. I think the illuminated Saiteks are supposed to be pretty decent, too, but I'm not too up on the non-mechanical scene since I've had a laptop for a number of years now (and I'll be buying a Filco as my next keyboard since I use an external monitor and am getting a new desktop PC soon). | ||

It's pretty kind of u to give me advice, but it was completly off any conditions I made for a Keyboard that will fit me. @Char711 Thanks for the great Input. I checked out all of ure suggestions and the Razor keyboard seem to fit me the most. Though I'm curious because of the many bad experiences people get... I keep feeling there is the "ch4ppi"-keyboard missing on the market... | ||

I have 3 logitech keyboard now, the first one is the standard PS/2 (mouse keyboard combo) that I got when I built my rig before getting the USB New Touch (above). Then I used this one, Logitech Classic New Touch 200 USB, until I got Logitech Ultra Flat on my office, I found I like this one better, so I decided to get one for myself.

New Touch is soft type one, quieter, but I don't like it since I don't get the feel of it. This ultra flat one feels like mechanical keyboards (but not) and much cheaper (around 14$ I believe). | ||
