I've been searching for a while for a new keyboard. The one I've got at the moment is horrible. You have to force the keys to go down and its really loud. I looked at the other keyboard thread and found nothing I liked. I'm looking for something quite and comfortable and not to pricey. Any thoughts?

Have a look in PC World so you can touch them all yourself. I like my MS multimedia keyboard as I was after one with quick link buttons and a nice play/stop/volume control. I dont like how the delete key is the size of 2 keys where the home/end keys are and how the function keys are in groups of 3 and not groups of 4 though, arg!

Any features in particular you are after? Wireless, bluetooth, lit up keys..

Well I bought a lit up one and it made this continous high pitched noise. Not bothered if its wired or bluetooth etc

I have a saitek eclipse and it's a pretty nice minimalist keyboard, the good looks and lighting up thing is just a bonus!

The ability to turn off the light is nice too. I might get one. Unless I get that black one on OcUK, for 80 something quid.

That keyboard is very nice, but I don't think I can justify spending £80 on a keyboard! Unless of course it was that optimus keyboard where the keys are LCD displays! Although that may be vapourware.

Using MS Natural Keyboard PRO, best one I ever touched so far. Though it takes a bit of time to get used to bigger delete key...

I use the MS Bluetooth keyboard, it's yummy. Pressing the keys feels lovely. Use to have a cheapo one that was quite nice too, it had black keys and was semi-transparent, quite a common one iirc.
