I've been using the same Logitech keyboard for nearly 6 years - ( A G15 - rather a large lump - not made any more but there is the G911 and G19 - although these aren't small either) Had no problems with it. Check out the Logitech Website

Perhaps you should NOT have had a V8

Razer Lycosa

I (http://store.razerzone.com/store/razerusa/en_US/pd/productID.169417800/categoryId.35156900) have that, and I like it quite a bit. It is $80 though. If you like having the thinner keys, and don't care about macros or any other fancy stuff it is a nice keyboard. It also has a USB port, as well as 2 audio ports.

You might try looking around at other Razer products, but they can be higher in price. Logitech I think has some great products, so most of their keyboards I also suggest (as listed above).

Been using a Logitech ex100 wireless keyboard and mouse for a couple of years now, no problem what so ever. The mouse and keyboard need a new battery about every 8 months or so. Quite nice action on keys and so far no lettering wear yet. I didn't pay much for them as a pair.

I have the same pair, and really like them as well.

I too have a number of Logitech keyboards (G11 to G15). They take up some room, but I like them and they've been with me for some 5 years now too...... Not sure they'll like juice though, haven't tested that :icon_lol:

I'm still using a Maxi Switch 124 key Maxi Touch programmable keyboard that is over 15 years old, I haven't poured V8 juice on it though!

Hmm, been typing on a MS Natural keyboard for "Lo, these many years now" and am not likely to change. Only thing I didn't realize about it is that it ruins your touch for "normal" boards. I can no longer type on them at all. I just wish that the Nat types came with all the bells and whistles that the dedicated gaming boards do.

:guinness:

Logitech Ex110 wireless mouse/keyboard combo here. Been using it for about 6 months.The keyboard is just fine haven't tried the juice test yet but it came throught the iced tea test with flying colors.
The mouse can be a bit herky jerky at times even after fine tuning the settings. Picked up the set for about $30 bucks.

Using a Saitek Cyborg V7 keyboard here, it's backlit with a USB Socket and Mic and Headphone jacks also the
coloured lights came be altered in different areas and there are an extra twelve programable function keys.
Had it over two years now and no problems so far.

Logitech G510 here. All the bells and whistles to boot. Not cheap. NOT top of the line gamers choice either. It's a niche market. NOTHING is cheap anymore!!

I got a Logitech G11 from newegg when they were on clearance. It was a ridiculously low price. I'd just keep an eye out for deals at the egg.
