    Default Microsoft X6

    Hi guys. I am also looking at a new keyboard. I have this stupid Cybersnipa keyboard and i really prefer a plain microsoft keyboard over it because the level of the cyber really sucks. So now i am looking to buy the X6 which looks very good. Has anyone got this keyboard if you do are there any complaints? I would really appreciate it! Thank you.

    Also have a look at one of these: http://www.zapsonline.com/46693-stee...d-fo64049.html


    I had one and it was solid and awesome, I see they are about R200 cheaper than when they were sold under the Zboard brand.

    Only gripe I had with it was that the Home End Insert keys are bundled with the num keys, and for design purposes it drove me mad. Other than that I miss that board!

    haha. that is why i am looking at it. very good price from them. They are normally like R800 or so. I have the x8 mouse so i thought they would complement eachother quite nicely.

    I also have it, its very good. The only problem I find is that macro's and the volume and all those buttons, if you dont use them for a while and then later try them its like the program takes a while to start. So you turn the volume a few times with nothing happening and then after a while it comes to life and the volume jumps around. Maybe its just my computer but I've read on other forums about people having the same problem.


    All around its a great buy, especially from BT Games, o and before i forget:

    IT JUST LOOKS COOL IN RED! :P

    I want to get the X6 because the X8 is so good. I also have a Roccat Kone. I bought the X8 for my laptop seen as though it is wireless and found that it was better than the Kone because it was wireless. The other nice thing is that you can recharge it while you are playing. Don't get me wrong the Kone is a very good mouse but i just like the fact that the x8 is wireless.
