Just received this keyboard and I have to say I am pretty impressed given it's price. This has to be my favorite layout to date if you're in the market for a 60% keyboard that also has a function row, arrow keys, home/end, and pgup/pgdn keys. Given it's non-standard layout it would be nice to see a more expensive version with PBT keycaps, Cherry MX switches, and possibly an aluminum top plate (this one is plastic but does a relatively nice job attempting to look like metal given its chamfered edges, etc.). Also worth noting is that the larger keys that have stabilizers have different switches with a stiffer spring (resulting in a feel similar to Cherry MX greens) and actually have a different color stem from the other keys (magenta vs blue for the rest). Finally to help add some info which the description does not include, the three backlight settings are a vertical wave, what most vendors call "breathing", and finally a tetris-like mode.

brainkillawell for starters, My current keyboard is a CM Quikfire tk with cherry MX blues, and there is a distinct difference in sound and actuation. I feel i have to bottom out the key more often than not, but i do have gorilla hands so i mash anyway. im not a big fan of the different switches for the larger keys, they arent as crisp. However, i paid $56 for this keyboard, and i really shouldnt be complaining, its fairly well made, looks clean, and is compact, i plan to be carrying this in my backpack for work and school. The switches are "Zorro", a brand im not familiar with nor have i heard of, yet i also consider my self new to mechanical keyboards. hope this helps
