I have a Razer Tarantula. I like it.
I like the feel of the buttons and the macro keys are good for re-disguising (or whatever) without burning those precious calories. It also has 2 USB ports, mic port and headphone port.

The keyboard has arrived. Only slightly dissapointed that the software that came with it didn't work. But a quick download later and I'm in buissness. It's a dit of a monster. I've had to change a couple of things on my desk so as to get the thing to all fit in. Love the back light. Nearly everthing I have now glows blue  Expect some horifingly bad gaming as i struggle to break away from my arrow key addiction and get used to the asdw dedicated end thingy |

speaking of key configs you should see my dm one.
my tf2 is totally stock atm but in hl2dm i use the following.
left mouse = primary fire (default)
right mouse = secondary fire (default)
scroll down = shotgun
scroll left = magnum
scroll right = smg
scroll in = fragnade
scroll up = jump
space = duck
the standard wsad for moving and strafing (default)
all weapons are bound around the wsad area so i never take my hands off the movement keys.
left shift = sprint (default)
left ctrl = duck + space = duck
oh the bunnyhopping goodness, that reminds me i have 2 league matches tonight for dm.
oh i use a razer lycosa keyboard btw and a g5 mouse on a razer mantis control mouse pad.
id start going in to all the delicacies of mouse sensitivity settings in both setpoint, windows and game and also polling rates and accell disabling in windows all to improve aim but that's a totally different topic. if people wanna know about mouse sensitivity and what to do give me a shout. The changes may take you a day or 2 to get used to but you will reap the benefits in the long term.

Did you all know that UK keyboards do not work with windows..... The pipe key (next to '1' at the top +CTRL+ALT) displays a broken pipe i.e. ¦ And the broken pipe key (SHIFT+\) displays a pipe i.e. | Some useless info for ya |

scroll up = jump
I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE!!! for hl2dm its the only way to play. all the top players use this method as it helps having to time the jump as precisely as you would using space (one scroll = multiple jump commands fired, pressing space = 1 jump command fired) this greatly improves consistency while flying round the map bunny hopping. i don't use it for tf2 as i have no need the game movement is not fast paced enough to warrant it for me and there is no bunnyhopping  |

bunny hopping has always and will always be an inherently annoying and retarded game feature

Fixed not always true unfortunately, its a big part of certain shooters and included intentionally. |

I couldnt disagree more. While bunnyhoppers are annoying, they took the time to learn the skill. It's not easy to learn.. you may as well say the same thing about speed rocket jumping. Its a very hard to learn and master skill (harder than bunnyhopping) and helps you get about quicker. Ultimately making you a better player for the practice |

It's a useless holdover from a crappy game engine (in this case the Quake one). Bad design, poor workarounds and fixes, and yes, while some games include it intentionally, most of the time it makes no sense to have it, since it shouldn't have existed in the first place.
I just wish the Source engine redid that code entirely so it didn't exist in source games. Oh well. It makes for good speedrunning I guess at least. TF2 at least limits it.
