Does it have a calculator shortcut key? Can the illumination be turned off? Does the keyboard go dark if the computer goes to sleep or turns off?

You can program a calculator key. Illumination can be turned off, and it does go dark when the computer turns off.

Hi, Yes it has a backlit keyboard feature, but the RAM could not be upgraded anymore.Thanks, PCrush

Back light is toggled on/off with a button on the keyboard. As far as I know, there is no way to time it. You can customize the colors and switch them with the profile and macro keys.

The only things that light up on this keyboard are green lights for Num Lock, Caps Lock and Scroll Lock when they are engaged. Otherwise, no.

I have no clue if it goes to sleep; my guess is it does not as it has an on - off switch. Keys are NOT backlit.

Dear Angelpunk18, yes it has the shortcut Fn+F6 and you can Press Fn+Esc to adjust the brightness. Thank you.

Yes. There is a button on the right side of the keyboard to shut off the light.

Yes, it does have a backlit keyboard which is awesome, and the battery lasts anywhere from 4-5 hours. Not too great, but it gets me through the school or work day with extra battery to spare.

The keyboard is backlit, but you will need to adjust the power settings if you want the backlighting on while on battery.

Sorry for the delay, Sidney. Yes, it has a keyboard which seems to stay lit after reboot until the machine is put to sleep. Waking it up again will not restore the lights until your next reboot. I haven't found a solution for this issue yet, but don't find it very bothersome.

The keyboard is easy to read when the lights are off. They are white with black numerals and letters. I love the keyboard. It has three settings for light. I also think it is one of the easiest keyboards to type on that I have ever had.

You can turn the led off. However, it makes the keys super hard to see. The mouse does have LEDs. All the blue you see in the picture is from an LED.

The F5 key turns the backlight on and off. I think in order to use the F keys for their usual functions you have to press another key too, like the fn key but I have not tried that yet. Pressing the keys on their own does the things pictured on them instead, like keyboard light, volume and mute, and stuff like that.

This model does not have back-lit keys. The only LEDs on the keyboard are caps, scroll, and num lock keys.

YES, it is! You wouldn't know it from reading the product specs sheet, but it definitely is. In fact, the keyboard backlight is on by default (when you get the computer). If you want to turn it off to save battery power simply hit the Function key (Fn) plus the F9 key.

I think your asking about the backlit board? To turn the keyboard light on and off hit the f5 button.

No it doesn't and that was partly why I bought it. Unless there is a secret way to turn it on, that statement about having a lighted keyboard was not true.
