Saitek Eclipse Keyboard ( PZ30AU )

Saitek Eclipse Keyboard PZ30AU

This PZ30AU keyboard would not work with my older office Dell computer running Ms2000Pro that I bought it for. Rather then returning it I switched it out with a keyboard from a HP computer running Microsoft XP .. Works fine on the HP-XPOS.. However, Backlighting is not as bright as I expected.

Does its job nicely. Quality is good. Lights up two levels. Both levels are visible during day light. No complaints.

My husband is a "hunt and peck" typer. One of our computer desks is in our bedroom. My husband always had to have a light on when I was trying to sleep when he was on the computer working, so he could see what he was typing. I bought him this Saitek keyboard for Christmas last year (2007). Our entire family, including children love this keyboard and it is used several hours a day. The only issue I have is, after ten months the paint is wearing off of the frequently used keys. It's not a problem for me, but the "hunt and peck" typers I live with will eventually have a problem. It's still a good keyboard and I may try to put permanent marker letters on the keys eventually and see how that works. Overall a good product. Even if I have to purchase another one eventually, the light is off when my hubby is typing. I'm happy!

I bought this keyboard because I am a lousy typist.Cannot touch type which would be the solution to my problem.It is good looking and has a nice touch.My problem with it is the size of the letters on the keys.Too small,even with the illuminated background.I needed to use my desk lamp anyway.So I sent it back. Amazon was fast with a full refund.This might be just the thing for some,but not for me.Maybe new glasses and typing lessons!

People ask me why I'm sitting in the dark or call me a vampire now because I'm always dimming the lights in the room to better see my awesome keyboard!
