New Keyboard

[Getback]

After reading 9s post. I'm thinking of getting a new Keyboard. What is a good one for gaming?

G15 keyboard, hands down.

It wouldn't even be a dispute if HTC would allow the LCD to reflect game data.

Wow! Nice looking KB.  Do you have one? If so what data does your display show?

OK, I'll bite.  I went to the website and looked at the G15.  Looks neat, but not being very computer knowledgeable, and less keyboard knowledgeable, how could the macros be used in the game and what would their benefit be?

edit: you have 18 macro keys and three different banks of macros for a total of 54 macros. It also has a friendly switch to disable the windows key on the board on the fly, illumination button with 2 settings, and sound controls.

The lcd panel does alot of stuff as well, easy downloads mods are available for it.

Yep you can do all that and then some if you really want to get creative. I use lots of the macros with my TM Cougar stick to really make it easier and remove some of the less used controls like gear up and down off my stick and throttle.
