Got my K90 set up last night, and it looks sexy as hell.
Really weird typing on it thought, I'm so much faster on my G11 and normal work keyboard.
How long on average does it take to acclimatise?

Two of the LED's on my QPAD MK-80 have stopped working which is weird. The 'Fn' key and 'Enter' on the Numpad. Annoying as it's only 3 months out of warranty and are keys I hardly ever use (not that that would make much of a difference).
What to do? Qpad support any good?

QPAD MK-80 died tonight after about 15 months useScroll lock LED is out as well as it not working. The numpad keys have been more and more temperamental in the past few months, now all my cursor keys as well as b/n and forward slash are dead. Guessing it's a goner? Bit gutted really, loved the QPAD but won't be buying another. Anyone else had the same issue?
Still in warranty mate get it sent back
Only one way to find out, i hope there are tho as i have same board

Well not a very promising start. I emailed them on Friday and still haven't heard from them.

LOL, I posted the above at 14:50 and got a reply from them at 14:51. What are the chances- perhaps they read the forum?
This is what was said:
Anyone done anything like this before? Relatively straight forward I'm guessing but I wouldn't mind some feedback regarding which LED to use etc.

This. Although mine is camouflaged too
QPad stuff is based on the iOne keyboards, and there are a few other brands that use the design. They're okay, but for their price, they're not as good as the competition.

I own the Steel Series 6Gv2, love this thing, its amazingly solid and sturdy. Weighs a ton and has survived a number of spills. Has a good simplistic design, I highly recommend.

Just got the Corsair K60, I actually look forward to gaming sessions just so I can use it which I know is a bit sad
Kind of wish I got a keyboard with backlit keys, not that I need to look at the keyboard when typing but think it would just look snazzy.
The red switches make a great deal of noise (which I like) so can't imagine how loud blue switches would have been!

Filco has died.
It's a month out of warranty -typical for me - but I have a replacement USB cable on the way which should be the fix for it! Here's hoping.

Really? The things are built like tanks!
I have a Filco too, love it, although in the process of selling it so i can get a tenkeyless version of the same thing.

I've took it apart and nothing seems out of the ordinary. Wiggling the USB cable used to fix it, but now seems to be completely bricked. Hopefully the USB cable ordered fixes it, but i'm going to have a good look at it now.
Just holding the PCB with the keys on shows you how solid - and heavy - these keyboards really are!

They have the Filco Ninja Majestouch2 TKL with Red switches? I never thought they offered the non-Ninja TKL with RED switches.
Still on the Brown/Ninja/TKL myself although I've ordered a new keyboard from OC'ers today.
The more I read into these the more I want one 
Settled on either a Red or Brown switch but can't decide on a keyboard, any recommendations for up to £100? Leaning towards a Ducky at the moment.
I realise this question may have been asked a dozen times, so apologies

I've got a Ducky Shine 2 with red switches and it's far and away the best keyboard I've used, although I haven't used any other mechanicals. It took a little while to get used to but it's lovely now, and I find it really shines in FPS games as it feels so much more responsive than your standard membrane keyboard.
It's really helped rekindle my love for FPS games, I've also ordered the new version of the fUnc Surface 1030 and will probably pair it with a Mionix Naos 7000, should be quite a nice setup!
