The Black Widow is the only one with side Macro Buttons right?

I've been looking at the Corsair Vengeance K90 myself.  18 macro keys on the left and Cherry Red keys.  I might just buy one to strip out the keyswitches since this is the cheapest I've found them at so far.  lol

He's right. Not accounting for shipping, they're about 2 cents cheaper on the Leopold.
Risen from the dead for a model F.

Wyse buy colors were GSY for the dark grey, GBA for the light grey, and BBI for the fonts.

Technically speaking if he just wants the switches at a cost per switch standpoint the corsair would be better just because it has more switches.

I thought I read somewhere the macros weren't mechanical. Haven't really paid attention to the lay out, but aside from the macros isn't it just a standard 104 keyboard?

Unless I'm totally mistaken, if so you are correct.

I bought one so I'd have a nondescript mechanical at work.  Considering i'm emailing and doing data entry all day, it's held up really well and i haven't had any issues.  though i do notice that some keys click quieter than others, like the 8 key on the 10key is quieter than the rest of the keys.  beats typing on that crappy scissor switch 2$ piece of door stop that they had at the desk when i started.

I haven't seen a pic or anything proving it, nor do I care to look. Baseless assumptions because the only things that look like not standard switch keys on the thing look like buttons you'd find on a remote control.

But yes, going off topic is simply human nature.
