What is SpaceFN and why you should give it a try
The SpaceFN concept - setting up your space key as a layer switch when held - is probably one of the most useful tweaks in the keyboard hobby. Let me explain how it works.

K70 is a much more capable keyboard, with multimedia keys, and actual keyboard control software with macro mapping.
You *can* get white keys for K70, it just won't be from Corsair. Places like Geekkeys.com, pimpmykeyboard.com, and mechanicalkeyboards.com sell them. You just have to pick whether you want them backlit compatible or not (i.e. do you want the backlight to shine through the keycap). There's always Amazon and eBay if you need more colors.
