  • The Logitech G15 is a well made keyboard that was made with gamers in mind. Having said that, I am somewhat skeptical as to who might use all of these features. There are a lot of FPS gamers out there who would not get the full experience that the G15...

  • Very simple and robust macro functions; programmable LCD; USB ports.
