APEVIA KI-COMBO-GN Green/Black 104 Normal Keys 18 Function Keys PS/2 Wired Standard Keyboard and Mouse Combo

Pros: I have owned this keyboard/mouse combo for four years now! It has been nothing but wonderful to me. The keyboard still responds wonderfully to my crazy fast typing. It has not given me any problems in games either, and I am no lightweight when it comes to gaming. The multimedia keys are a godsend. The keyboard has always worked beautifully in Windows XP and Suse Linux, even without having to install the included drivers. The mouse is in working condition as well. It still lights up and responds to my movements. Apevia definitely has a quality product here!

Cons: I only have two not-so-good things to say. First, the mouse does not respond quite as fast as I would like it to; however, I understand that this is not a high-end gaming mouse. Second, which is my fault, the well overused foot pads are long-gone and worn off. This might have something to do with the slower response time.

Overall Review: Four years later, I am finally in the market for a new mouse and keyboard. I would keep these products for another four years, but I am in the process of upgrading my rig. My previous setup was a green theme, but my new setup is going to be black.

Pros: Looks awesome, cheap!

Cons: Had this keyboard since april, the "E" key has always been a little funny. A few days ago the Ctrl, Z and C key all stopped working.

Overall Review: You get what you pay for.

Pros: -The keyboard, it alone is worth the 20 bucks. -The color matches my computer's case.

Cons: -The mouse, the cord is VERY thin, when I opend the box for the first time I knew it was only a matter of time before this cord got a stip in it, and here we are 4 months later, and I cannot turn the mouse left. If I do it cuts out compleatly. But it has been a very good mouse for the 4 months, very smooth and reponsive.

Overall Review: I would defently buy this set, and buy a different mouse and keep it in a safe place for when the mouse in this set dies.

Comments: Overall a pretty nice combination for the money. I bought it to match my son's new XION XON-001 green lit case. The mouse wheel lights up blue. It's PS2 connectors only, no USB.

Pros: It looks cool. It has function keys. Does not wake you up in the middle of the night wanting a glass of water. Does not cost as much as a good keyboard.

Cons: Overall build quality is low. About a month in the "e" started to work intermittantly. And then like clockwork the other keys started to go in order of most use. I had to hit those keys twice or more to get them to work. Had it less then a year. Just threw it away. Always buy a major brand when it comes to stuff like this. Lesson learned.

Pros: Works great in ubuntu 8.04 (Linux Mint Elyssa) and works well through my cheap two port IOGear KVM. Mouse works fine for me.

Cons: None - could be less expensive,

Pros: - it matches my green apevia case - i actually like the feel of the mouse for hours of gaming. - blue scroll light matches the blue lights in my power supply and fan. - came as a set - cheap

Cons: thought i would use the multimedia keys more often but the only ones i really use are the calculator hotkey and the volumes. i didn't realize that the play/pause, stop, previous, and next hotkeys didn't work with anything other than windows media player (which i detest) so i never use them. the mouse cable is too long, and the keyboard cable is not long enough, but that's just my opinion. i tried to use a standard USB adapter on it to give me an extra 6 inches and it didn't work at all. i've noticed that the keyboard input often freezes up, and won't type anything for about a minute, not so groovy when you're fighting that boss and you die because you can't cast your keyboard just decided to go awol for no reason. the keys are loud, and although it's not a con for me, it's a con for most people.

Overall Review: overall, i like green, and i like my green, blue, black motif, but the input freezing up is enough to make me go looking again. valiant effort at trendy, apevia, bbbb (GAH! keyboard has frozen 3 times while writing this review) but you could have had a bit better quality. tried catching the input failure on camera, but of course, it was camera shy. you get what you pay for.

Pros: Green! It is a good keyboard.

Cons: Mouse is a dud. First i thought it was just uncomfortable and cheap. Then it just stopped working after a week - no biggy it was trash anyway.

Overall Review: I purchased this for my girlfriend who wanted a green keyboard and mouse. As expected the mouse was horrid, but the keyboard has withstood use and is still working strong. It is not an extremely comfortable keyboard, but it is comfy enough.
