There is a windows menu lockout key for gaming and it lights an LED when it is enabled. I don't know if WinXP-64 OS is supported. I have not tried them yet because they only work if you download the logitech support software. There are 6 macro keys which can each be assigned three macros. As to touch typing, well its just superb. But it took very little time for it to feel natural and I am sure it will only get better. The layout required a little bit of stretching since the keys have significant vertical travel compared to the K800. So, I played WOW for the first time with it last night. So when this new keyboard was announced I knew I had to have one. From my experience with the K800, I required LED backlighting. From reviews here at Tech-Report I decided I needed a mechanical keyboard and that only Cherry MX Brown keys would suffice. Finally, I wanted to be able to touch type more rapidly and the low end Dell keyboard at work is superior for typing compared to my K800. This board is supposed to have 26-key rollover. Also, it seemed like the K800 sometimes could not keep up with keystrokes. But, over the last year I have been playing a lot of WOW and it became clear to me that I need some audible/tactile feedback as to when I have hit a key. Especially the way the backlighting came on when your hands got close to the board. I am upgrading from a Logitech K800 which I loved, being wireless and LED backlit. However, my first impression is very good. I'll be updating this post with some comments a little later as I get used to the layout. I just received my new Logitech G710+ mechanical keyboard with Cherry MX Brown keys.
