@...Nimbo: The counterstrike fascia has the keys on the left, and so do quite a few others. The keys are on the right for the WoW one because that’s where the numberpad and arrows keys that you use for WoW are.
@...SteamUserNotSet: You buy one keyboard that works with loads of fascias that work with loads of games. The fascias are interchangeable.
Nah. IBM model M keyboard FTW. clakety clakety clakety. I have one from the early 90’s that still works great. 😛 They aren’t dishwasher safe like modern membrane keyboards though.
You miss the point, it’s not whether or not it has useless extra keys, it’s the fact it’s a pathetic product targeted at pathetic fanatics of a pathetic game.
And I take it that someone that needs extra keys for something designed to be played with a normal keyboard pretty much fails at PC gaming.
That’s like a console gamer that needs 1 and a half N64 controller to play Goldeneye 007.

Ooh, I didn’t know there are dishwasher-safe keyboards now. Next time I spill my coffee on mine, I’m going to look into those.
My bro-in-law got this keyboard for free somehow. After trying it out, I’m inclined to agree with everything Dreth just said, excluding the last “pathetic”. Trading my number-pad for some buttons that perform functions already accomplished by two keystrokes on the letter keys is a non-starter.
I think you mean Z-board.
Z boards are pretty full of fail, if the extra keys were on the left hand side of the keyboard it might be more useful.
Well I guess southpaws might like it on the right.
Get a G15 and gtg
Zboards: why spend money on an ergonomic keyboard when you can try to be cool and buy a completely NEW keyboard that really only works with ONE game?!
Zboards!
For you southpaws like me get a Z-Board FANG. A extra smaller keyboard for lefties and righties. ALOT better than this board.
g15 + mx518 + n52te = win.

Lame…
G15+mx518 is pretty ideal as Shanghai factor said. Z-boards seem like a gimic to me. I have better things to waste my money on.

WHERE THE HELL IS THE LEEROY JENKINS KEY?!
Phail. Z is teh sux.
This means easy to use, so there’s no need for me to buy wow gold to level-up my character.
