Is it as cool as shown in Die Hard 4.0? Specially the keystroke sound?

Key stroke sound is there. Unfortunately your keystrokes are not always as intended however..touch fidelity not 100% . Missed strokes and unwante multiple strokes

This is like a special keyboard. A lot of the buttons mirror keyboard buttons and you can program them to do macros, which are basically allowing complex series of key presses with one button, so it's probably great for that game.

It's pretty noisy and there is an electronic "Key Click" option. If you can live with it with that option off, the experience is WELL worth it. It's also worth noting that I am very heavy handed.

Hey, David. It's mainly the green LED back-lit keys. I recommend the expert edition though. As all it's keys are programmable, it does have the green LED back-lit keys, and it's just a lot more fun to look at. :)

I would say the sound is normal, not too loud and not too quiet. The touch is really comfortable. I had bought 2 of this keyboard.

Yeah, it's good. It takes 2 usb ports, and you have to use their software program. You can't change colors before getting the program. That is where you change the colors. I would have liked it on the actual keyboard. The emblem is much brighter than the keys.

Well, I own both the plastic keys and the the real stuff,but this keyboard is super because of the real sounds . just buy it , you will love it.

It is i would say. I got the red as well but you only hear a thump, while this has a mechanical metal like click. I wish I could compare it to my IBM m though side by side. Other than going unicomp, mx blue seem like the only alternative

I find the space bar much louder than the other keys. I don't know if there is something wrong with mine - I just got it yesterday, but it makes racket compared to the other keys.

In my opinion the keys are quiet. As for the typing action, I do not find it as responsive as my previous Saitek products. For the money this was the best value I could find with the features I wanted; mainly illumination and volume control/mute on the keyboard. I've had no problems out of this keyboard other than what I may have posted in my original review.

I'm using one right now. The media keys for next/last track, play/pause, stop, and mute all work. The volume knob doesn't, nor do the programmable keys along the top above the function keys. I like the way the keyboard types and I don't use those other keys at all so it isn't much of a detriment to me. I do wish the volume knob worked but that's about it.

The keystrokes are quiet. It's not the loud clacking noise, but a very quiet tapping.

It's moderate in noise. Probably less than MS kb but not by much.Edit: After sitting down and using it I would say it's just a tad quieter than the MS keyboards, not as loud as the old (and well loved by me) IBM keyboards from the early 90's. It certainly would be annoying still in a library if you're a quick typist, say 60+ wpm.Also, I can confirm I have to move it between USB ports when it goes missing, about 2x a month as other people have mentioned in reviews.

For the most part it is. I don't really do a lot of extended typing so it probably would be as noisy. Seems to have gotten alittle bit noisier now that the keys have loosened up a bit.

Its been driving me crazy! But I've been sitting here mashing buttons and found that if you press cmd+7 it brings up the task manager in windows. :))) I just found about twenty more hidden key functions. Seriously, get bored and you'll figure out how cool this little keyboard is!

Not between the chroma and original but the stealth version is quite a bit quieter than the click one. (The stealth sounds like browns while the clicky sounds like blues). I prefer the stealth so if you're playing a button masher you're not overwhelmed with clicking sounds.

There is a very small amount of movement whenever you touch the keys. It is much more noticeable at first -- I thought I'd never get used to it -- but after a week or so I didn't notice it at all. If someone else uses my macbook they will often comment on it -- because they notice the difference in "touch". It's definitely worth getting used to, though -- a clean (and dry) keyboard is a happy keyboard!
