Have had it working for about 6 months now . No trouble . I'd buy a Saitek keyboards again Cons: I did not get another one !!!!!! Wish I would of got it in blue Other Thoughts: I also recommend sicuro.com Titanium X L speakers that they don't have on neweeg any more don't now why. from Newegg.com Pros: Smooth and a real quality feel. Nice red lights...a fun change from the standard blue of my Eclipse and Eclipse II. Cons: Well, I know the paint will rub off a few keys after a while, but no biggie. from Newegg.com Be careful doing things like that. Under normal use (and even a few eating n playing sessions if you're careful), I'd say that the keys hold up to normal use pretty good. Somehow, the word "Eclipse" has half rubbed off, too. I don't know how that happened since I never even touch that part, but it did. from Newegg.com Pros: Great Red lighting for midnight typing, during midnight gaming. I always use Saitek for computer builds for family, friends and customers Cons: None Other Thoughts: Thank you NewEgg for great service from Newegg.com He loves it he sometimes can't sleep at night so plays on his computer but doesn't want the lights on. This has helped him see what he's hitting. Cons: None Other Thoughts: I have the Saitek Eclipse II myself and I love that one also Never had an issue with either one. from Newegg.com Other Thoughts: I bought it for my son. He was using my ABS M1 mechanical keyboard for awhile and I didn't want him to mess it up. The ABS M1 is 100 times better than this Saitek Eclipse. It also matches his red Razer Diamondback mouse. from Newegg.com Unlike in some other reviews, This keyboard is evenly backlit throughout and every key is perfectly clear even when it is set on dimm. I really like this one much better than the blue one. I'm gonna buy another one for my new build :) Cons: I didn't buy two :{ Other Thoughts: This is my second Saitek keyboard. The first one was the same except that it was a blue-lit one. from Newegg.com Volume buttons work as intended: Quieter, Louder, Mute. Typing sensation is relatively soft. Don't expect the loud clickity-clackity sound from some boards, this Saitek Eclipse is very silent. No problem with multiple keys pressed simultaneously in games. from Newegg.com Other Thoughts: Cheaper to just buy a basic keyboard, but it was on sale with free shipping, and the nicely cheap (lite-on and others) keyboards never have free shipping. Paying as much for shipping as the keyboard just bothers me. =) Figured my daughters would like the red lighting, Saitek has been good to me in the past, so I bought it on a whim. Figured you get what you pay for, usually, so I splurged a tiny bit. from Newegg.com It's still a great looking keyboard. Other Thoughts: I'm using it with my laptop because I hate having to hunch over to get close to the laptop. Oh wow, still getting use to using an external keyboard, everything I typed above was typed with my laptop keyboard, but just switched over to the Saitek a few seconds ago and it's really smooth. from Newegg.com
