This review is from: Microsoft Wireless Desktop 2000, Black - Wireless Keyboard and Mouse Combo with Comfortable Palm Rest.
Pros:
Cheap price but don't let that fool you. Do not order or you will be disappointed in the performance.
Cons:
First the mouse: pure junk. The loudness of the mouse click will wake up your next door neighbors. Then there was the problem with the mouse tracking. I never could stop the jittery, sticky movements. All drivers were current but it was just a pain to get the mouse pointer to move to the correct position. I could plug my old Microsoft Explorer Mouse back in and it would work fine but trying to get this one to work was an uphill battle that I lost.
The keyboard was OK but my big fat fingers just could not handle the "chicklet" style keys which seemed too close to each other. Press one key and you'd likely get 2 or more characters appear on the screen.
Overall Review:
I ordered 2 of these, one for myself and one for my wife. I thought I was being too finicky until my wife finally told me to send them both back. RMA issued.
I reordered a Logitech MK550 combo and it works perfectly. Microsoft should be embarrassed at having their name on this piece of junk.
