I have been using this keyboard for several months now, and I am pretty much satisfied with the keyboard. I have not had any of the paint rub off the keys as some have. I did notice some minor sticking with the tab or control keys once in a while, but this has not been much of an issue. The tactile feel of the keys is not as good as some other keyboards I have checked; however, I can type just fine on this keyboard. The backlighting works well and instead of having translucent keys, the keys are black with translucent lettering. You can choose from three colors: blue, red and violet. There is also a control to adjust intensity. Also included are some media control and speaker control buttons. This is a USB only keyboard and will not work with a PS/2 port using an adapter. Overall - not a bad keyboard.
