I don't own one of these, thank goodness. But after having freelanced at several places that use this keyboard, I noticed that they do not age well. For starters, certain keys become slightly misaligned with repeated use, and cannot be depressed swiftly. This problem is particularly apparent with the left Command key. Anyone who uses key shortcuts will be frustrated when the Command fails to work (e.g. instead of selecting all the copy in a text box, an 'a' will have been inserted).

There is also no covering over the areas between the sets of keys so any dust or debris that falls over the keyboard is 100% guaranteed to fall to the bottom, where it will collect and display clearly through the transparent edges. After a few months, what you get is a keyboard that causes inadvertant typos, while looking like it needs a bath.

Fortunately, these have been discontinued. Just don't go buying one now!

Received a lightly used non USA keyboard of the later white design that used USB ports in the rear and no height adjustment. This did not match the accompanying image. At $72.95 I was expecting USA and new.

My keyboard came with thee iMac in March 2003. Just about a month ago it started skipping and extra spacing. Cleaning is not an option since the unit is sealed so I am looking for a new one. Maybe 4 1/2 years is not a bad time? What I did not like about this board was that there where no instructions with it that meant discover as you go. This is my main reason why I am going to try a different board.

I got this keyboard with my tower mac. It worked great for about six months. Now it's a large white turd that takes up my valued space time existence. In desperation before my new board arrived I had to cut and paste letters to alter a flyer that I needed to put out. Luckily the 5,6,7,8 and 9 keys worked along the right side. Gosh, maybe I've been too harsh on this poor little creature. No....actually it's a big white turd. Apple wisely discontinued it a couple months ago.

This keyboard comes with an eMac and looks great.
A little water from my daughter, numerous disassemblies and cleanings and it still doesn't work right. Still, I'm looking forward to a better keyboard. Read other reviews and you'll see comments on the mushiness and inaccurate keying of this keyboard. Believe them. How can a reviewer give anything more than 2 stars to a keyboard which facilitates wrong keystrokes. To me you have to get the basics right. Classic drawback of the keyboard is you type a word and one of the letters is missing.
So, two stars and I hope to find a much better keyboard than this one.
