Dear all,

After much consideration, I placed an order and paid a whooping $23 in postage, however I am rather happy with my choice. I think on reflection, perhaps blank RGB would have been better but I really don't mind at all. Perhaps when I place another order... who knows.

For the moment, this is my KB.

I should say, if it is not obvious, the upper right unprinted keys are display brightness, I adjust this A LOT, dark blue for DARKER and light blue for, well, you get the idea I am sure.

Mu is right about the printing, it hit and miss on the RBG but the Esc key and the Delete + letters F and J are really pretty darn good. I think once the newness shiny comes off, within a few days, they will bed in nicely.

One final thing about the RBG, it is only the shift printing that irks me, but only then, a little. The Alt and Ctrl keys are well matched.

Strange how we Mac users have more use for those keys (F14 and F15 in our case) than those on the PC. Although the SSK does have a good excuse for Num Lock up there at least.
