yer its getting to the point where they sound fairly bad ass, that and my current keyboard has less than a full set of functional keys and the little stands at the back have snapped off =P this is a sexy looking replacement.
Looks nice, I love my Quickfire Pro, and one of the main improvements this one has in my opinion over the Pro is full back-light, making it much more aesthetically pleasing then the Pro to me.
personally, i dont use macro keys, those specials keys? i cannot remember using them in any game whatsoever. They are not on top of my list. Matte, nice, dont like glossy keyboards, yes im looking at you black widow (i own one)
Or get a mechanical keyboard that has dedicated media keys that don't require holding down a Fn button (which can be annoying) and that has macro keys too.
And I was about to pull the trigger on a DAS keyboard. The red-backlighting and the cheaper price for these is quite the draw... decisions decisions...
