28 August 20088.5/10Microsoft has created a gaming keyboard with a unique selling feature that is actually useful. While expensive, it is very well designed and built. As gaming keyboards go, this is a great choice, if you can afford it. Read more
- Downs: Expensive price tag and it lacks the LCD panel featured on its main competitor. Layout of main key groups slightly compressed. Awkward placement of Esc key.
- Ups: Detachable keypad is genius. Sexy styling. Quality construction. More macro keys than you can shake a light saber at. Cruise control feature. Good software.

Then the second and third bank are for gaming, with the keypad set to macro mode. Read more
