[QUOTE="Exodist, post: 1623237, member: 284358"] Well I am glad you got it working. $400 bucks and 3 month warranty actually sounds really good.. 3 month is a great warranty as in my experience, if something electronic is going to fail. Its normally always in the first 3 months.. Here are a few things that have happened to me in the past. I had one keyboard I loved, had the backlit keys and everything. I spilt less then 2 table spoons of Coke Cola on the keyboard. It didn't short anything out as it only made it to the rubber membrane under the keys. However no matter how many times I took that keyboard a part and cleaned with everything from windex to commercial grade alcohol from our air base. That syrup, even though I could no longer see it. Would still bind my keys up.. They had also discontinued that model keyboard at the time.. The other thing is my wife had a USB keyboard with backlit keys, kinda looked like the current Mac keyboards now, but had brushed finish. She went to check her FB just after getting out of the shower, some how when she touched the keyboard with wet hands (wet but not dripping) it blew the voltage regulators on the motherboard. We didn't use that keyboard after that.. Come to think of it, we was running Ubuntu 5.10 or 6.04 at the time.. Really great year for Linux OS.. [/QUOTE]
