Pros: It's a very attractive system, seems to work well under Windows XP Pro.

Cons: The card & software worked great under windows XP, but everything fell apart when I upgraded to VISTA. Creative's updated drivers got me back in the ballpark--sort of, but a month after Vista's release they still don't have decent software to replace that which came with the unit. Also, you can't take full advantage of all the features X-Fi has unless you also own their speaker system.

Overall Review: I still reccomend this product or any from the Creative line. They've always been a dependable company, I just wish they'd been more prepared by the release date of Windows Vista. But don't let that stop you from getting an X-Fi card for your own!

Pros: It's a beauty. Looks handsome on the desktop, and even adds a bit of fun to the typing experience. The keys feel just right, and the addition of the light makes them easier to see in darkened conditions.

Cons: The lighting is a bit uneven, and could have been a little brighter.

Overall Review: This is a good, solid keyboard. Quick installation made it a breeze to setup. I reccomend the product to anyone looking for a good, dependable keyboard with lighting.
