As usual at TPU the first pages /1 and 2/ are useless marketing crap. But hey, can only wonder about that. I can confirm that I love my old but working K70, so this new one should be just as fine, plus the dragqueen lighting haha.

Introduction, specs and knowing what you'll get with the product is marketing crap? :S

I like how more and more keyboards go for the clean, downplayed look rather than the stupid, stupid "gaming"-look (ie angles, angles wherever there shouldn't be angles and stupid colors and fonts and layouts). I would never dream of dropping this kind of money on anything less than a GPU or monitor though, so not for me. Like it though.
