Similarly to how the M60 is red compared to the M90s blue, so the K60 is red compared to the blue of the K90. The key (ahem) elements of the K60 being the sculpted WASD keys they're the highlight in the clear panel on the left.
The internal packaging is extremely sturdy, which matches the keyboard itself. You could drive over this without causing it any ill effects.
Without the need for the macro keys the left hand side of the K60 is obviously shorter than the K90, but besides that it's identical. The same gorgeous aluminium body and that beautifully crafted volume control, hewn from a solid barrel of aluminium.
Although the keys themselves stand proud, such is the low profile chassis, they require the same low 2mm actuation thanks to those Cherry MX Red switches. There is even a USB pass-through on the back should you require somewhere to quickly plug a stick in.

By the way, the Roccat Isku looks better (just a matter of taste).

I dont like the aluminium case, its too reflective, I'm going back to a traditionaly boring black keyboard.
The caps lock etc lights are too bright, irritatingly distracting for me.
In addition to this my K60 is not stable, spending 80 quid on a keyboard I dont expect it to be wobbly, so I am hoping to get a refund.

If you want all the build quality of the K90, but don't have a need for macros, the K60 should be right up your alley.
