Green backlight wouldn't have been my first choice, thought I'm sure wanting to have a unique color had something to do with it. We'll see how high quality the construction is when people get it. At the very least, I'll give it the nod that it's fairly restrained in its design, no fugly "look at me I'm a extreme gamer keyboard!" aesthetics. And no silly macro keys cluttering it up.
One thing I wished these "gaming "companies wanting to get in on mechanical switches would do is offer it tenkeyless. I know some gamers argue they use the tenkey (I think mostly MMO players) but the gaming benefit of having the mouse hand closer to neutral, and more space to move around, would make a tenkeyless version more desirable for gamers. Also it would differentiate them from "normal" keyboards and make uninitiated masses more likely to go, "Oh, that's different, it must be what the pros use!"
