i'd buy it, if it was 10$ just to open it up and see the internals. (prolly can't use the controller, i can't use the controller on the msergo 4k's)

Yes, and USB, (non-PS/2), but practically NKRO.

They're pretty good keyboards, and feel somewhat nicer than a typical rubber dome. Any of you newcomers looking for a decent new keyboard, go for it.

11 key rollover is plenty.

nice deal for FPS players who aren't into serious typing. I've always preferred Microsoft's rubber domes over Logitech's. They tend to last a bit longer. Not sure about the x4 cause i've never used one in person. I like the design though. A bit classier than most of the recent sidewinder lineup.
