The G15 for me is the LCD bit and the usb ports. The Gkeys I don't find super useful. If this g15 ever dies, I think im getting one of the ggamer pad things, and will suffer with the loss of the usb hub.
I miss the built in usb... X6 does not have them so running a long usb extension for my MX Revolution mouse so it gets the closest, clearest signal. I will say that my G15 lasted me and is still running strong for my daughter however it was either $60 something for a X6 or around a $100 something for a G510 so considering the price point and the fact the LCD was useless well for me... shows me my ammo clip and a few more stats only? Or a clock ohh wow although I had experimented with it and downloaded all sorts of stuff for use on the LCD display it seemed the end-user continued interest simply died w/ the newer versions imo. One thing I never did was use the macros in-game... I know, I know but to me as I explained to my daughter... the way I felt then and still now is, not everyone "gaming" can afford a $100+ macro enabled keyboard so I never used the macro functionality at all in multi-player/online games only in Single-player/Campaign modes otherwise imo it felt like cheating using it against actual people but then again I did pay for it, ultimately my little well dressed man in white on my shoulder said "no Mike, it's just not right" but hey that's me and my ironic sense of morals eh? :erm:
