Okay, I'm deciding on which keyboards should I get.

Here's the keyboards I'm deciding to get:

G15: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16823126034

Lycosa:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16823114008

OCZ Alchemy:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16823227001

Also, does anyone got a good keyboard that is slim like a laptop keyboard and can play/pause music while doing something else? It also HAS to be backlit.

Get the last one. It's 30 bux, and looks nice. Save the rest of your money for something to eat or whatever else you want, maybe a new mouse

Get the lycosa or G15. The G15 has fat keys, but it has a LCD.
With the lycosa, it has slim keys, a rubbery finish so your fingers don't slip, 1ms response time and you can make any key a macro. With the G15 I believe you can only use the "G keys" for your macros. For the response time with the G15, I'm not sure if it's 1ms. I do know that the logitech a 1ms response time though.
What I've heard about the alchemy is the anti-ghosting capabilities aren't so great. Ex: You want to crouch and jump at the same time (ctrl+space) you can't.

The Elixir is what I am using now, and it is what I have recommended to many people. It has ten macro keys that can be programmed up to 16 keystrokes each, but that is technically 8, due to the fact that ht press and release of a key each act as one keystroke, according to the software.

The keys are unique, as they are not like a normal desktop keyboard or a laptop keyboard. They are all rubber-coated, and it takes a lot to wear away. In the case that some keys would wear away, they include replacement WASD keys, space bar key, and arrow keys.

It is somewhat large, but not as large as the other keyboards that you have chosen.The lights on the keyboard aren't very bright as like some keyboards, where the LED's are glaringly bright and annoying.


Put the money you save from buying this keyboard over into a new mouse, or just save it.

The question is.... is it backlit?

I'm thinking about getting the Lycosa cause of the macro, response time, and design.

And @Nick, what's the difference between the regular and the mirror version?

The Alchemy is not backlit.

The difference between the mirror version of the Lycosa and the normal version is pretty much the looks, but the mirror version collects fingerprints extremely rapidly, and in my opinion, is quite slippery.

Well, I don't care if it collects fingerprints, not like I'm going to look at the keys all the time.
I just want a good keyboard that is great in everything and is reliable.

Bought my monitor, case, and a bluetooth headset from there. Legit company.

Do you know any keyboard that is slim, backlit, and has a great response time like the Lycosa and a kinda nice design with it too?

Just get it if you're looking for a keyboard that's slim, backlit and has a fast response time.
Or is the price too high for your budget?

Which keyboard are you talking about?
