Well at the rate software is moving..., I think it's slowly killing the keyboard market. Software is doing it better, giving you more, and doing it cheaper.
Don't get me wrong.., keyboards are always going to be there..., but the software setup with its many advantages will eventually drive the prices of basic keyboards even higher IMO.
How often have we complained (even recently) about how the keyboard makers are still using old and dated hardware compared to what's out there now.
