  1. Logitech G19 Keyboard Review

    Reviewer: Gizmodo
    14 June 2009

    Logitech’s G19 gaming keyboard—which borders on ludicrous with its embedded Linux mini-computer and full-blown LCD monitor —is the best one they’ve made yet, even if it doesn’t quite reach its full mind-blowing potential. More » Read more
