Summary: cord is too short, mushy feeling; quality isn't there
Review: I have been working with computers for thirty years and have three computers at home so I know what a keyboard should feel like. I bought two of these keyboards because: 1. USB connectivity 2. two USB ports and 3. it is square and not too huge or round or otherwise in a weird shape. Why anyone would buy (or want to make and sell) any other type of keyboard is beyond me. I see lots of moron keyboard manufacturers making green, round, PS/2-plug keyboards with buttons everywhere and I wonder how they stay in business. Anyways, I can't use either of these keyboards for the dumb reason that the cord is too short. One would think that three or four feet is long enough but if you have the keyboard on the desk and the computer on the floor then that doesn't work. Apparently one of those morons works at keytronic. How much does two feet of cord cost? The feeling is a bit mushy but I assume one would get used to it. The USB ports are upside down. For a company specialised in keyboards I am unimpressed with Keytronic - I'm going to have to buy another two Microsoft Internet keyboards, like the one I have already.

Summary: Perfect Keyboard that can be used as a USB hub!!!
Review: This keyboard is a USB keyboard that worked immediately with my Dell Inspiron 5100 that runs Windows XP without installing any software. I don't use the internet keys so I don't know how great those are. Other wise this keyboard has taken a lot of pounding since I bought 6 months ago. I am a college student and all my friends use this keyboard when in my dorm room. The BEST THING about this keyboard is that it has two USB ports on the back of the actual keyboard, so it acts as a USB hub as well. It takes up one USB port on your computer but then gives you two extra USB ports! This is great for me because I have my optical mouse and my webcam hooked up to the keyboard and they all work perfectly fine. Everything about this keyboard is reliable, the keys may not be the quitest but I've had louder. Definitely a best buy unless you want a wireless keyboard. Why would you buy a regular keyboard when you can get a relatively cheap reliable keyboard that gives you two extra USB ports? Buy this and you will be satisfied.
