If I was going to get a keyboard like that, I'd at least want them to spell Protoss correctly.

Well, if there's a limitation of 6 letters, I'd understand, but it looks like they could fit it there. Or match the smaller font on other parts of the keyboard. I didn't catch that ^_^

Anyone got a guess what those three racial buttons are for?

Ooooooh, a hotkey preview!!!

Also, my guess is the three racial lights are so you can have custom key setups for each race. You turn on the Zerg setting/light, and your custom Zerg keys are active.

EDIT: upon further inspection, i didn't notice before racial buttons under a "macro groups" category, i only saw the lights. I really have no idea what that will do.

MACRO!


yah I want to know who signed off on those prints. Im sure thiers an explaination for why they decided they couldnt fit one more letter in for one of the most important labels and how the buyers probably wont care.....but its a bad one.

I'm a diehard fan and I don't care.

Archer will love this keyboard...MACRO!

And why not...it looks great. Nice design and functions but it only works for Wings of Liberty? (The name implied it)

Look up the definition of Z-boards when you can, you'll find a specific link in the article. It's a modular peripheral that allows you to attach different keysets to the base based on the game. Sincerely, not too much is different for an RTS like SC2, but if you look at their other FPS examples, you'll truly see how they change the setup.

Now I know how I will spend some money. I have 2 mouse pads, now I need the keyboard, mouse and maybe a headset since I have a new Creative Fatal1ty.

My current keyboard is just blank, no letters on anything. I have zero problems with it. I'm actually type much faster, even though I was already a touch typist. If you're going to put down the money on something like that it's going to end up slowing you down in the end. Every second counts.
