Bad mistake
Don't buy this keyboard - after reading the other reviews I made the mistake of buying one. After 3 months of using it I'm ready to throw it out. So what's wrong with it - well the single most annoying design flaw you could imagine and this clearly illustrates that these other reviewers actually never used the keyboard they were reviewing.
The tapered edges at the front of the keyboard coupled with the sunken keys means that as you type your left hand constantly touches the Ctrl key sometimes just enough for the keyboard to register a key press along with what ever other key you are pressing as you type. The result of this is that in a browser for example you get new tabs and windows occasionally opening (as they just did while I was typing this) and a lot of other strange unexpected results due to Ctrl+key combinations.
If that isn't enough to put you off - the back lighting on the keys is very poorly designed. The light is visible from the front of the keyboard far more than from the top. The effect at night isn't really that pleasing on the eye and in fact it's quite distracting instead of being an aid. My opinion of Gigabyte has reached an all time low for producing a product like this.
STRENGTHS:
USB keyboard
WEAKNESSES:
Poor design and the left hand Ctrl key and recessed keys make accidental Ctrl key presses unavoidable.
BEST USES:
Door jam.
RECOMMENDED ITEMS:
Asus and Microsoft keyboards are far superior.
