Best keyboard -£25?

Meatball · 25 May 2006 at 19:53

I'm looking for a new keyboard for less than £25, anyone got any ideas? I've been looking at the 'Logitech Media Keyboard Elite' (£19.92)

EDIT: I would like it to be black and would also like some silver as well as it will match PC case (Centurion 530), Monitor (SM913N), and speakers (AE Aego M White)

Saitek eclipse is under £30 on here and a bit less elsewhere

Oh I like that! Is it wireless and the keys backlight?

Not wireless but very nice to use and excellently built, also looks great in real life.

MS Media Desktop Pro will set you back about £15-18.

Best keyboard i've ever had, just cant wear it out. The logitechs just dont feel right after using this.

Don't you just hate using other keyboards (or thinking how cheap they feel) after using a Cherry.

OCUK used to sell /use them as well (as used by our office staff if I recall)

Defintely Cherry. Had mine for years, and it's as good as they day I got it. Beats the stuffin out of anything else I've ever used (including Logitech, which I'm quite a fan of too) Even my 3 month old keyboard at work is past its best in comparison!
