What kind of keyboard lacks those keys? I guess you're supposed to use the Numpad?

Didn't even notice the arrow keys and above buttons were missing till a poster pointed it out. Glad I didn't impulse buy this.

This wootoff is laborious and getting to be down right annoying. I hope it does not go on for another day.

The Cyborg RAT 9. Was really skeptical at first, but it's a phenomenal piece of equipment, and I love the customization options it allows. They recently sent me a review unit of their new MMO 7 mouse, which is very similar, but with even more possible button modes (something ridiculous like 80 or so).

I love the RAT 9's weight system, and the ability to temporarily drop the dps on thy fly is a great boon for my sniper shots ;)

I'll be playing crapshoot now....

A reasonable price for an originally overpriced non-mechanical keyboard :/

I was considering that more for ergonomic reasons... is it worth it? don't really do modern gaming on the pc

Watch, after I bought this and this finishes, the damn Dragon Age 2 Razer keyboard comes up.

I wish there was upvoting in these threads sometimes I just like to agree and not converse

I think so. But keep in mind the RAT 7 (wired) and RAT 9 (wireless) mouse is heavier than your average mouse. It's very solid.

The options to change out the palm rest and the pinky rest with a total of three different designs each is great. As well as being able to pivot and extend the thumb rest. Though, I've found that the thumb rest, when pivoted outward, has a habit of slowly being squeezed closed as I use the mouse.

The higher dpi settings mean I have to move less distance on the pad to travel the same screen distance, which could be good for your ergonomic concerns, too.

Ok, keep buying them so we can move on... I bought two for the cause. Who knows if I'll use them or not. At least they're selling for $75+ on eBay...

Played the &$@&$ outta that game on a trusty Atari ST.

No arrow or page keys, and no macro keys? How in the heck is this supposed to be a "gaming keyboard", and why is it $50?

Who the hell spends $55 on a keyboard?

Obviously, you are not familiar with a computer gamer or a typist.
