What keyboard do you use and like?

Monday, February 23, 2015 by Island Dog | Discussion: Personal Computing

I'm using a Microsoft wireless 2000 keyboard which I've had for a while now.  It has actually been real good for everything I do including gaming, but this one needs to be replaced and I'm looking to see what to get next.

Looking at the Logitech wireless illuminated keyboard. Like it because it works with the Logitech unifying receiver, but not sure I want to spend that much.

Not really a big fan of wires, but also looking at the Logitech G105 gaming keyboard. 

 

Not really sure what I want to get yet, so thought I'd ask and see what you all are using or like.

I have been useing a Logitech G19 for yonks, and have no plans on buying a new/another one.
I am quite pleased with it.

All my input hardware is Logitech.
(Well, apart from my Wacom)

But then again....

I wouldn't be surprised if I go all nuts and buy a keyboard from Datamancer...
They are droolable!

If it isn't made by Logitech, I wouldn't buy it.

Logitech MK320s in our house. They work great. (I'm not real picky about keyboards though).

I'd dropkick a kitten for this set:

Wow, $725 for the keyboard alone.  That'd buy a lot of kittens.

I have a Logitech MK550 keyboard/mouse combo.  I'd post a pic but Imageshack has feched up my account and I can no longer sign in, and Photobuket is a major PITA,

Anyway, while it's not gamer specific, it is a great keyboard and has all the extras a person could want.  Not only that, it's real comfy and easy to use, as is the mouse.

Oh, and mine didn't cost AUD$129.95.... was $79.95 at Officeworks, so I reckon the US price would be around $45 - $50 if you shopped around.

There are no good keyboards...

 

I need the layout of a MS Natural Pro with keys that aren't shit.  Painted lettering and plastic contact sheets is what I can get...

I use a razer blackwidow ultimate for gaming. I like it it has pretty good feedback...but I can't stand it when programming. I have a cheap logitech keyboard that I use when working on programming projects instead.
