Default The Most expensive keyboard ever made.
http://www.artlebedev.com/everything/optimus/

Please discuss! From what i've read these "Optimus Maximus keyboards cost just $267 USD just for the board itself, but it's an addition $100 for each one of the special keys that look like they have tiny little OLED's in each on of them. With the complete keyboard selling for a mere $1,500 what do you guys think of it.

the interactive demo can be found here:http://www.artlebedev.com/everything/optimus/demo/

and a more pictures of this ridiculous keyboard:http://gizmodo.com/341896/first-hand...ximus-keyboard

No 3 headed snake, I'm not buying a keyboard over 50$ without the Razer logo.
I'll stick to my Lycosa.

i heard the Lycosa has terrible mult-media controls, that's why i went ahead and spent a few bucks more for the tarantula ftw.
