OCZ Elixir keyboard for 99 cents after MIR

[KilJim]

$20.99 - $20 MIR = $0.99!!

Not the best gaming keyboard, but at a buck you could use it to swat flies

OCZ rebate is a little slow though

OCZ rebate is slow but has been reliable for the last year or so. Good deal.

 

[marmasatt]

Thanks. I jumped.

 

[imported_nunya]

No use for this whatsoever but for a buck how could I refuse? Thanks OP.

Make it even sweeter with 3% Bing Cashback... $.36 AR + FS

Jumped as well, .36 for a backup keyboard is nto bad at all.

Cant beat it for 99 cents but the reviews are freakin HORRIBLE.

You cant use more than 1 key at a time or something.

From what I got from reading the reviews, you do not want to make this keyboard a cheap Christmas present for a gamer. However, some people liked the feel of the keyboard (others did not), some people liked it bc it was big and did not slide around. Also, some liked the extra keys. I can always use a keyboard in a box... especially one that cost $.37.

Seriously? A keyboard that can't even Copy and Paste? I have never seen a current keyboard that couldn't handle at least 2-3 simultaneous clicks...

This can't be right. If you can't use control, shift and alt modifiers then this keyboard is useless for any OS or application written, ever. Every OS and application relies on modifiers like control, alt and shift (sometimes simultaneously) to get more than A-Z and 1-0 keycodes. Including punch cards. Even ENIAC would have been crippled by an input device with a one-key-at-a-time restriction.

I'm guessing it has problems with modifiers on some, but not all keys. Still, a completely idiotic design either way.

so far the only problem i've had is the combination ctrl+spacebar in CS:S. everything else for me has worked
