  Awesome response, great build quality

  Pros: Backlit, customisable macro keys, rock solid

  Cons: Palm rest comes off too easily - annoying

  Summary: After the Habu mouse, this is the second input device from the Razer/Microsoft alliance. I had to wait quite a few weeks to get mine as suppliers were saying they were hard to get hold of. Once it arrived I plugged it in installed the software and I was off. I have used a lot of keyboards over my time from high end industrial products by Cherry to the quality consumer products by Microsoft. The feel of this keyboard beats them all. The build quality is very solid indeed and once positioned it grips the surface of your desk so wont slide around. This keyboard seems to be similar in design and concept to Razer's own Tarantula but with a few less features it also has 2 USB ports one on each side of the keyboard. The only downside to this keyboard is the palm rest detaches too easily. This isn't a major problem as once the keyboard is positioned to your liking it wont be going anywhere. If you want a high quality gaming keyboard then I cannot recommend the Reclusa enough, while you at it get the Habu mouse to go with it for a killer combination

  Reclusa is a excellent keyboard but has some flaws.

  Summary: I bought this keyboard for $70. I got home installed the "software/drivers" and it all came up fine. Then I tried to change my "hotkey" functions and there was little flexiability. But the defaults where fine for me. The hand rest is detachable and very comfortable with a foam type material on it. They dont have much of a tech support team I sent in a request about jog functions and nothing back for a month. Its a great keyboard, but it is very expensive for what your getting.
