part missing (3x)

 

inexpensive good simple keyboard - that's all I needed

supposed to include USB/PS2 adapter: no such thing in 3 different boxes. I went to their website and they commented "we don't provide replacement parts". Sorry, this is not a replacement part, someone just forgot to put it in the box in the first...

New favorite

 

Would defiantly buy again. Best standard keyboard that I have used.

This keyboard is great ; Is thinner than most keyboards but not too thin ; Keys are barely gummy feeling with a great amount of springy feeling to them ; Comfortable and minimal in layout, just the basics ; Have gamed and typed on it and have had zero...

May slide around on your desk depending on the surface as the rubber feet toward the front of the board are not that sticky

Inexpensive and compact but . . .

Inexpensive, compact keyboard. Very lightweight

Sits low -- lower than my original keyboard. Keys are also smaller -- its very easy to press an incorrect key if your aim is off. As a couple of people previously mentioned, the rear legs are short and do not provide much tilt or lift. Not a good...

Make it Level

 

Still seems like a solid keyboard

The keys type, they feel solid, seems less noisy as well. Looks plain and clean, which I like

My Keyboard, though efficient, came unbalanced, unleveled. with the feet in the back up or down, my keyboard rocks... as not all feet are leveled and touching... This is quite annoying, though can be fixed with putting things under the keyboard, or...
