I bought this keyboard for $30 new & shipped on ebay, and I have to say its amazing! Love the lights, the keys are quiet and have a good feel to them.

i can tell you they use the exact same keyboard as that one in the picture. The keys are all loud and clakety and the ones at my job are starting to break already. Id take the Saitek behind me over that thing.

Didnt say it was old or crappy, its just crappy to me :/ Everybody has their own tastes in peripherals. I still use an MX510 Logitech mouse cause its comfortable to me but other people hate it cause its not responsive as a G5.

Yea i still use old junk mouses, the kind that come with pc's. Ive never had a problem with gaming i dont see this supposive advantage with a ultra responsive mouse, or super keyboard with a ethernet card. To me a ethernet card, special mouse, and keyboard are just a big waste of money.

Ethernet card yes, but i like my laptop keys and backlit keyboards. My mouse just fits my hand.

I won an Eclipse II in a contest; I only had to pay shipping. It's a pretty neat board. The keys are pretty tactile but loud, and the lighting is really useful.
My old board was the Logitech Office Pro. I enjoyed that thing, but the Eclipse II's lighting won me over.
My school has the Dell keyboard pictured in the first page. I really like them, except I wouldn't use them for my own PC (they lack media buttons :V).
