Reviews of the Microsoft Sidewinder X6 - keyboard
-
CNET Review
The Good: Thirty programmable keys; profile switching; nice selection of vanity keys; automatically loads custom game configurations.
The Bad: Not very comfortable for everyday typing; no adjustable height and angle; wrist pad isn't soft and can't detach from keyboard.
The Bottom Line: With its 30 programmable buttons, the Sidewinder X6 is solid choice for PC gamers who demand total customization. Its removable keypad is also sure to draw in the gamer who wants control over ergonomic preferences.
