More or less as the title, need to replace keyboard (beside being full of dirt, this one is PS/2) so taking the opertunity to get a new one.

Seen the Corsair K55 on offer for £40 and very tempted by that, but just thought I'd see if anyone has any other poinsters I should consider.

- I play games only very occasionly, otherwise used for general office work (typing reports) and a bit of programming. While I like a resonably possitive action, I don't think I need to go down the mechanical key switch route? I understand quite noisy and get tiring when using for typing?. The keyboard I am using now, which is a wyse branded keyboard as shipped with their thin clients feels more than possitive enough for me, and I should imagine that only has a membrane in.
- Backlight would be advantagous, but I don't really care how many light zones it has or for each key to be individual, I just want to be able to see the keys without needing the light on
- Defintaly no split style ergonomic keyboards, I don't touch type, I use 2 each hand when typing and the split between what keys are done with whcih hand is not as it would be for someone who can touch type in the normal manner
- Definatly no more than £50
-Edit: full number pad on the right is must
Edit: Must be wired, no need for wireless

Thanks
