OK so yesterday I killed my Saitek Eclipse and now I need a replacement.

My budget is in the 50 beer voucher region, though I am happy to push it if the keyboard is worth it.

I was very happy with my Eclipse, so that is a good a starting point as any for the type of keyboard I am after. I do a bit of gaming, mostly FPS, but also a fair bit of typing so whatever you lot come up with should be comfortable for both.

I am more than happy with membrane-style boards. I don't know much about this new-old-fangled mechanical keyboard malarkey, too many discussions about various coloured fruit in describing the keys :/. They're all way outside my budget anyway. Apparently the mechanisms are made from unicorn horns looking at the prices.

My only other stipulation is a wired keyboard if possible. Zero point in being wireless since it never moves from my desk.
 
Thank you for your suggestions, fellas.

The MS keyboard is looking like the front runner. I like the look of the Logitech KB [and I am a big Logitech fan] but I can tell most of the 66 quid price tag is for the gimmicky screen which I will never use. The wrist rest also looks too small for my clown-sized hands.

More suggestions are welcome! :)
