Question 1

Is the LED's just red, or is it multiple colors?

Accepted Answer

The only color is red, but you can adjust the brightness, and in the software you can change some of the patterns that can display on the keys.

Question 2

Does it come with a wrist rest?

Accepted Answer

Nope.  I was worried when I bought it because it didn't but it's not that bad without it.

Question 3

How long is the cable for the keyboard itself?

Accepted Answer

Umm judging but the looks of mine,  between 4-6 feet. More than enough length unless your tower is sitting pretty far away from your work station. I have a video of my inbox in if you are interested. Search youtube for ColoradoNative87.

Question 4

I have the keyboard, but is the USB passthrough 2.0 or 3.0?

Accepted Answer

Hello. I'm pretty sure the USB pass through is only 2.0. One easy way to tell is usb 3.0 has a blue tab while 2.0 has a black tab in the slot. Hope this helps.

Question 5

Is this a full size keyboard? It just looks a little on the small side in the picture.

Accepted Answer

Its a full sized key layout on a small chassis. It's missing the media keys which makes it also look small. It has a nonstandard bottom row which means replacing keycaps is a problem and might be necessary with the low quality keys.

Question 6

Does anyone know if this keyboard will work in Linux Mint or any other Linux distro? I'm not really concerned about running any of the additional software that may come with the keyboard I just need it to function as a basic keyboard while in Linux.

Accepted Answer

It does for me on Ubuntu
