Default So! What kind of USB keyboard should I get?

I try FFRing on this laptop and it sucks balls with jumps. They don't respond at "exactly" the same time, thus I get random goods for no reason. I was suggesting a Logitech keyboard for myself, but I wanna know what you guys think I should get. Links would be greatly appreciated. :3

It depends on the laptop I suppose. My friend's laptop is great for FFR. I got like 30 AAA's from his keys.

seeing as you're used to a laptop, and are most likely going to go the flat kb route ... your best options are the Logitech Illuminated ($79) or Kensington Slimtype ($25) (sup wayward)

If it's a matter of simultaneous detection, I have literally the cheapest Logitech keyboard for my laptop. works fine for all I can tell. I even play solo stepmania on the thing.

Least we got a keyboard guru here in these here forums. Slimtype sounds good so far. That or the UltraX Premium. Thing is I may not be able to find them at a store though. That's just my luck.

Keep an eye out during boxing day at Amazon, NCIX, Newegg, etc. Many popular keyboards will be on sale with free shipping to anywhere in the continental US.

Once I actually get spending money, I'm gonna look in stores to see if I find anything based on what I like. I'm probably gonna get told they don't sell them in stores though.
