Can't remove keys

 

I was excited to use this keyboard after reading about how great it was. However, on the third day I got a little salsa on the numpad. So I grabbed a screwdriver and popped the 1, 2, 4 and 5 keys out using the same normal method I'd used for over 15...

Classic design. Interesting ergo technology.

Can't remove keys for cleaning.

Title: Very fine keyboard

 

The cord comes off the back of the unit (not the bottom). It is not centered, but is 2 1/4 inches from the right side, and is about 5 feet long.

Keyboard preferences vary widely. I like mine with a good tactile feel - slight resistive pressure to start then a smooth quiet (not silent but not with a loud click either) contact. That describes this keyboard pretty accurately, and it's the best one...

The textured finish on my board is slightly non-uniform. It's almost like it endured abnormal thermal stress during manufacturing (a total guess on my part). This effect is slight and not too noticable - you have to be looking for it to see it. It...

Great Keyboard

 

I am not a touch typist, which is why I rate my tech knowledge at 4, and personally use a Saitek Eclipse (back lite in blue of course) howeverI have built many systems for my clients with this keyboard. For a business get this one.

Defines the standard for business keybaords.

Solid, great touch

 

After NMB folded, I must have gone through a dozen different types of keyboards without finding one I really liked, until the Designer-P2.

Legal secretaries and transcriptionists have high standards for their keyboards. I bought one of these for the law office I support, and after testing it, everyone on staff wanted one. It was an easy purchase decision that has worked out well. After...

None.

Ok keyboard

 

Not what I was expecting for the money, so I'm really just a bit disappointed.

Love the layout of the keys and the key lettering looks good.

Not as quiet when typing on it as I expected it to be.

Keyboard for a lifetime

 

This keyboard will last a lifetime! I was replacing an old computer at work that had a Eurotech keyboard attached to it (basically, this keyboard). The new PC only had USB ports, no PS/2 ports, so I decided to keep the keyboard for myself. It was quite...

Highly Durable

No PS/2 to USB Converter

Not as good as it could be

 

Keytronic usually makes some really good keyboards. This one was kind of a let down.

Simple, ordinary, and durable. If not for the con I mentioned it would be a perfect keyboard.

Some of the keys stick when you try to press them. They bind up. In video games the arrow keys don't respond quite right.

A VERY solid keyboard. it has lasted me for thousands of hours and millions of keystrokes.

KeyTronic - my all-time favorite keyboard

 

I fooled around with two Logitech keyboards after my last KeyTronic keyboard. Until I find something better, I'm going to stick with this for a while.

Amazingly crisp tactile response, reminiscent of those old IBM or Apple "click" keyboards albeit not as obnoxious acoustically.

Minor gripe: although the letters are engraved into each key -- this is much better than stickers that some mfrs use -- they're not filled in as neatly as I'd have hoped.

Best Keyboard for Typing

 

5 years and this keyboard just continues to Go. I'm a Software developer and I type all day. The Apple Extended Keyboard II was the best keyboard I've used until now. Of course you can't get Apple Extended Keyboard II. But even if I could, I'd choose...

No USB so I had to buy a ps2 to usb adapter. Please Keytronic, Make a USB version, or even include the adapter, then is is best of class.
