Rate this keyboard?
« on: Mon, 20 February 2012, 23:51:15 »
was wondering anyone has any hand on experience with this logitech keyboard? I just need one for daily use. It's not necessary to be too professional. Is this logitech too expensive for daily use?

If you look hard enough you can get a Model M for that price. Mine was $32 + shipping. Shipping was a ****load for me, because I'm in Australia, but you might be able to get it cheaper.
Current collection:
Filco Majestouch 104-Key, w/ MX Browns
IBM Model M 52G9700
Leopold FC200R, "white" w/ MX Clears
Ducky DK9008S \'Shining\', white backlit w/ MX Blues
Cherry G80-3494(LCYUS-2), w/ MX Reds for Portal Mod

Not mine, but I\'ve got access to:
Filco Majestouch Linear R Limited Edition, w/ MX Reds
Filco Majestouch 2 \'Ninja\' Tenkeyless, w/ MX Blues
Leopold FC500R, w/ MX Browns

No, that is not a good keyboard, or a good deal on a bad keyboard. As mentioned you should be able to easily get an IBM M for under $45 if stateside, also it is quite possible to get a decent Cherry G80 for that price range as well on ebay, as well as many ALPs keyboards such as the Dell AT101.

The Model M I bought advertised $12 shipping within the U.S. (it was $40 to Australia...), so yeah. $32 + $12 winds up being cheaper than the Logitech board OP posted. You do have to clean it, though.
