A very solid keyboard for the money.
- Pros: A very solid keyboard for the money. Slightly larger keys similar to the "Ergo Boards", but doesn't have the annoying split layout-NICE! I've had several boards, more than one of these and I like this one over many pricier razzle-dazzle units.We used to ship these as standard OEM with the systems we sold and customers were very pleased. Adapters a plus. Nice touch. Rugged.Can't beat the price for a very good keyboard AND optical mouse.
- Cons: White ink letters wear off in about a year if you need that sort of thing. Prop-up tabs in the back a bit weak.
- Other Thoughts: Mouse is a bit lightweight and fells cheap, but think of it as a good keyboard and a FREE pretty good optical mouse.
Works well for the price
- Pros: Cheap, good keyboard layout, optical mouse
- Cons: Mouse is jumpy
- Other Thoughts: Mouse will randomly jump around. Both keyboard and mouse feel a little light and willing to slide unexpectedly, but overall a good buy.
