Microsoft Desktop 400 5MH-00001 Black USB Wired Standard Keyboard Microsoft Desktop 400 5MH-00001 Black USB Wired Standard Keyboard

Pros: Combo makes it cheaper than buying it individually. The CD that comes with it allows for more customization.

Cons: Not as fancy as some other boards or mice but for the price you can't expect much more.

Pros: good budget keyboard and mouse, gets the job done. cheap

Cons: Mouse has a cheap feel to it.

Pros: Keyboard is a plug and play, so is the mouse (surprise!).

Cons: Keyboard feels spongy, not a lot of feedback. Mouse click is LOUD.

These would work fine for an average/light user, but since I am going to be playing some online games, this is going to get annoying fast. Looking back I wished I hadnt skimped on this part of my PC build.

Other Thoughts: What do you expect? Its 15 dollars for a mouse and keyboard.

Pros: It will get the job done and has a nice price.

Cons: No USB ports on the keyboard.

Pros: keyboard and a mouse for cheap who can complain

Cons: sticker on bottom of keyboard has a bubble in it

Pros: There's nothing spectacular about this product, it just works, and that's all I ask of it.

Cons: None.

Other Thoughts: Workhorse of a keyboard!

Pros: Keyboard:
- Feels good after a year of heavy usage (not hard to type, still no strain on wrists)
- Very low strain on wrists compared to other low end dome keyboards
- Simple layout - NO L shaped enter key, no extra function keys, standard layout
- Keys still relatively quiet after a year
- Angle with the stands up is perfect

Mouse:
- Comfortable

Cons: Keyboard:
- Keycap lettering starts to wear off after a year on frequently used keys (I'm missing S and C right now)
- Enter, backspace and space bar are loud when being used. This is caused by the stabilizer bar being loose (see other thoughts).
- Mini F-Keys are nice, but I frequently use them and they are a bit harder to press. The other keys have a natural amount of force required, the F keys do require extra force.

Mouse:
- LOUD ... not sure why this mouse is loud. I wish they still had their original optical mouse available in black - it's a much better mouse!

Other Thoughts: The stabilizer bar on the keyboard is a bit lose. I'm sure it's just part of mass producing a product that will be sold at this low of a price point. What worked for me was taking some of the glue/adhesive from packing tape and put on the stabilizer bar where it attaches to the enter/return/space key. That seemed to quiet it down a ton and they are still quiet 5 months later!

Pros: Works quietly and comfortably. Solid build.

Cons: None that I know of yet!

Pros: Perfect mouse and keyboard for the price highly suggest to get if you are looking for wired mouse and keyboard

Cons: non so far

Pros: Works like it should :)

Cons: None at the moment
