If it's designed for the Mac why is it glossy black?

Sad that they give this media function keys, but the other ones they don't give anything but the regular.

If you were given this one for free, would you switch to it? I've been looking for a better keyboard.

If I was a mac user maybe I'd switch but I'm not a fan of the MX Blue keyswitches, plus it doesn't have nkro. So really it depends on your taste as with all mechanical keyboards.

Oh blues. For NKRO, can't you just use a USB-PS/2 adapter?
