are not their Tactile model, but they
do indeed have $595 keyboards. They all (the $600 ones) feature
Matias's half-keyboard typing technology.
From the context, one could have gotten the impression that the nice
clicky keyboard for the Mac was $595, whereas it is only :-) $149.

Thanks for the feedback, listers.
My daughter Tracey has agreed to try the Apple keyboard for a while to
see if she will grow to like it, otherwise she can revert to her

What what's a laptop?? comment. IF you're going to accuse me of

Sorry, Clark. I should have been clearer -- I was spoofing myself for

forgotten that laptops existed.
Thank you again for your comment about which USB port I was using,

I have never had a problem with MAc keyboards and always found them to be
of excellent build quality.
I prefer the black ones that came with the iMac G3 (I have a DV model) over
the white ones that came with the G4 range (like my eMac G4).
