Summary: One of the best keyboards...
Review: ...I've ever used. There is perhaps one characteristic to this keyboard that makes it better than most: It is one of the few out there with a relatively firm tactile key response. With the exception of the old IBM PC keyboards from the 80s, I have never typed faster than with this MS Office keyboard.
Yes, I can relate to some of the complaints other reviewers have posted here, but they weren't so annoying to me. The left-hand scroll wheel and Fwd/Back buttons were particularly handy. I still have this keyboard, though I don't use it anymore because I needed something with audio control. I replaced it with the Microsoft Wireless Desktop Pro Elite, and while it's a good keyboard, it doesn't have quite the same tacticle feel that my old Office keyboard has. Seems the public likes mushy keyboards. Bring back the old "click" IBM keyboards, and I'd buy one tomorrow.
The other reviewer is correct; the Office Keyboard is no longer manufactured by MS and is thus why it's so inexpensive. But if you want a great typing keyboard with excellent control for Web browsing, etc., you won't go wrong spending the $20. Just don't expect all its other bells/whistles to be up with the latest and greatest.

Summary: Dont use Software on Laptop
Review: Dont use the software provided with this keyboard on your laptop i have found that it makes it so that all your FN keys do not work.
So preety much its just a regular keyboard since the hotkeys dont work without the software.

Summary: Great keyboard for serious office users, otherwise ....
Review: Good quality, cheap if you buy it right. Amazon's prices fluctuate wildly so make sure you're buying it right. For major office users, it is great. I have 2. For others, suggest looking at the multimedia or other makes.

Summary: Good keyboard
Review: I don't know what that guy above is talking about with the "=" sign. There is another one right above the numerical keypad, and you don't even have to press the shift key to get it. Of course, you don't need to press shift to get an = using the key next to the backspace either.I don't really have anything bad to say about this keyboard. Well, I do have one minor complaint. I wish it had a volume knob as opposed to two separate buttons for volume up and volume down. I've always prefered analog volume knobs to digital ones. But, I'm just being nitpicky now.

Summary: Love & hate relationship...
Review: I love the clipboard keys (cut, copy,& paste keys.) Use them all the time. My problem is that the right side shift key started to "stick" about a year after I bought it. Anyone else out there had the same problem? Unusual positioning of home, delete, end, page up, & page down keys, but you will get used to them as long as you don't use another keyboards elsewhere. The placement of "insert" key is interesting. (It is above your number keys.) Keyboard is large. So check your space before you buy it.

Summary: Great keyboard except one huge problem...
Review: I loved this keyboard except they messed with the layout of the edit keys (insert, delete, home, end, pgup, pgdown) I never look at my keyboard I know where all the keys are and I kept hitting the wrong key on this board because they felt the need to make their "special" little layout. I couldn't get past it. They turned an otherwide great product into a smoking pile of junk!

Summary: GREAT keyboard
Review: I'm a computer tech and graphic designer. This is a great keyboard. I use my keyboard more than my mouse and I love the fact that some of the commands I use often are now one button commands instead of two or three key commands. I am left handed and love the left side extension that has the cut, copy, paste buttons as well as the application, scroll and forward and back keys. I agree with one of the other reviewers, this is a large keyboard. I had no problem fitting it into my keyboard area but you may want to check to see if it will fit yours before you purchase it. Right or left handed this is a wonderful keyboard whether you are more of a keyboard person or a mouse person. I highly recommend this item.
