Crash, i know you won't disagree, but there is more to computers then music applications
Yes, for anyone who is just typing in stuff, it will not be particularly useful, yes you can get controllers for a hell of a lot less, i have a few, well one, but for applications with lots of shortcuts, or self-defined OS shortcuts, and games, this keyboard is simply epic. Especially for graphics people that have to know shortcuts for hundreds of tools, animators, modelers, etc, you know what i mean... and that is who would use this keyboard; musicians, probably not-so-much, though it would be useful if you use with a lot of software mixing apps, you could for example put song-selection tools on the keyboard, with quick scrolls and buttons to load into virtual tracks on your system, so you don't have to use mouse, and then a combination, or click and drag, ipod-like selectorscroll, point, select track to load into, done
