Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Logitech G11 Gaming Keyboard (Black/Silver)Customer Review: G11 vs New G15 keyboard Summary: 5 Stars
I'm a serious gaming fool and was dismayed to see the New G15 board had reduced the number of programable keys from 18 to 6 as opposed to the "old" G15 The programable keys are the heart of the board, able to record macros as well as any key action. I am happy again to see that the G11 is the "old" G15, with all 18 keys intact. To me, the New G15 only offers eye candy at the cost of the best advantage the G11 ( and the Old G15) have, the number of keys to program. Apparently Logitech saw the error of it's ways and is keeping the old board alive under a new name. My guess is that the New G15 will fade away and the G11 will live on.
Customer Review: Better than the G15 Summary: 5 Stars
This keyboard is a must for gamers~ It's backlit, comfortable to use, and the programmable keys on the side are my World of Warcraft keys. I was disappointed to find out that the newest version of this keyboard has LESS programmable keys.... NOW WAY! GET REAL! Why did Logitech do off with the extra keys? Made no sense...
Anywho, I own my one, and I purchased this as a gift for another WoW gamer. Love at first type also.
Pros: Back Lit, Media Keys, 18 programmable G keys
Cons: it is a rather *small* keyboard. You'll have to get used to the "squished" feeling at first.
Customer Review: Awesome for Windows Vista, not so awesome for Macintosh. Summary: 5 Stars
I love using this keyboard on my windows machines. It is easy to set up and is very intuitive in its game settings. The added keys allow for some neat macros to be used in World of Warcraft. These allow for added pwnage against people with standard keyboards.
I tried using this on my Mac Pro OSX 10.5.x. It did function as any normal keyboard but the extra keys didn't seem to do too well. I was able to tweak it a bit but they were never as good as when I was using it in Windows Vista.
All in all a wonderful piece of kit for your Windows based machine.
Customer Review: good programmable keyboard Summary: 5 Stars
great keyboard! cheaper that all the other logitech "G" class keyboards. really nice backlit keys, and the letters actually light up bright blue.
pros:
has pretty much limitless programming ability. for instance, my work requires me to cut/paste constantly and rapidly, so i programmed ctrl-x and ctrl-v in there. you can even add complex macros :)
cons:
didnt have much use for the wire channels under the keyboard. i guess the cord could be a couple feet longer. a little on the expensive side of keyboard prices, but i think worth it
Customer Review: Trading Keyboard Summary: 5 Stars
Have had my G11 for a year, use it for trading online, fx mainly. Well built nice designed and have no problems with it what so ever.
Now I do not beat on it like a gamer might, don't play games on it but the programmable keys are a Great asset for my trading.
Using Metatrader4 the keyboard allows for easy automation using the 54 hot keys available.
If you can figure out the keyboard sequence in your trading platform to do what you want it can be programmed in the keyboard easily .
I would not want to be without it now...
