Pros: Everything works like it is supposed to.

Cons: For a server board I found it kind of odd that ASRock didn't provide Linux drivers. They are all available just took some time to hunt some of them down.

Most Critical Review

Decent Product with Infuriating Flaws

CM Storm Devastator - LED Gaming Keyboard & Mouse Combo (Green LED Model)
CM Storm Devastator - LED Gaming Keyboard & Mouse Combo (Green LED Model)

Pros: Mostly functional.

Cons: Binding back light to scroll lock is immensely annoying for anyone who doesn't exclusively game and due to the invisibility of the keys if the back light is off you have to deal with scroll lock remaining on. Despite manufacturer claims that it is noted on the product page it is in fact buried in the downloaded Product Sheet and is designated a "Feature". While Newegg notes the light is bound to a shortcut key it doesn't say which one, that is either a failure of Newegg or Cooler Master. Additionally, the mouse wheel has a tendency to slip with extensive use and several of the edges are rather sharp and accessible if you have larger hands.

Overall Review: Cheap product for a cheap price. If you imagine you will do anything beyond gaming, don't buy it. If you are wanting a keyboard higher in quality than the $10 one at Best Buy but still not astounding that comes with am equal in quality mouse, then it is an okay purchase.
