Tactical Disaster Forum

I'm currently using a cheap MS keyboard geared toward multimedia accessibility. It's by no means a piece gaming hardware, but it has served me well enough. The ghosting problem I described earlier is starting to frustrate me again though.

The G15 is...not bad, but I have a few complaints about it...

1. The keys are not standard size, they are slightly smaller and I think packed more tightly together. Made it hard for me to get used to typing/coding on.

2. The 2 USB ports on the back are USB 1.1 (at least they were on the two I owned) Not a HUGE deal but come on...really?

3. The ones I had used the fold-up LCD which is not compatible with my desk.

4. The G keys make it too long to fit into my lan box.


I have already ordered the MS keyboard Stuart found. It doesn't even look like retailers have it in stock yet, but hey, when they do I'll be ready!

Well then, please post impressions when you have a chance to break it in. Personally I enjoyed the G15 for its unique attributes. You do have very narrow specifications that you have to fill and seemed to have bad luck when it came to Logitech brand keyboards so by all means! Let us know!

Always had good luck with Logitech keyboards, but never owned any of their newer ones. Still working on my 5+ year old Logitech Elite keyboard which I will never give up until the day it dies.

ahh like my microsoft intellepoint explorer mouse its been through over 10,000miles and still kicking

Haha, well I suppose I am outnumbered in my staunch support of the big L. I do know were Nicole and Doug alive and forum'ing, they'd back me up!

Few expensive mice rival the quality and durability of that mouse. I owned two, and when my Razer Diamondback kicks it I may consider a third.

Nothing, NOTHING can compare to the Logitech MX 518... I think nearly everyone in here has owned at least one (note I said nearly). I know a few staunch gamers who have yet to use said mouse. Ugh, I couldn't STAND that mouse (the MS)...

Im finding I need a new mouse, with even more buttons than my revolution has.

May I recommend the Logitech G5?

Is it ambidextrous? ... pwnd

I cant seem to use more than 3-4 plus a click-able wheel on a mouse

fwd/back/ctrl-tab/F5/middle-click/minimize on my revolution and I can think of functions for more if it had more.

F5 on your mouse ... someone spends way too much time on /b

Um, /b?

4chan.org/b/, your favorite place on earth!

As for the 518...I want buttons on both sides of my mouse, not just one. I've got TWO extra fingers not doing anything, why should I burden my thumb?

I am not sure why I still preach for the 518. I upgraded to the G5 years ago yet still support that damn thing! The G5 is perfect for my needs! That is the one I SHOULD be pushing.

WTF is with that 4chan thing. It infects the internet and infects my brain with confusion.
