    Just a shame you would need a shiny new mac to go with it!

    I'm lusting after the new 27" iMac. Now that thing is gorgeous!

    It really does amaze me that someone (in fact sometwo!) can describe a piece of electronics as 'gorgeous' - "very pleasant". What a pity is is usually accompanied by "drop dead"... :confused:

    Mmm for me its the same as seeing a really amazing looking car. That same boyhood buzz, only with electronics :)

    I love my Apple keyboard:
    It has very low profile keys which are really comfortable to type on, and it's easy to keep clean (you don't get crumbs and whatnot stuck between the keys).

    It's also absolutely gorgeous, which is the important thing. :cool:

    good low cost USB keyboard?

    Hmm.... £28 (and at least 2 days wait) over £5 (available immediately)... I know which I would choose if I was in an emergency keyboard situation (like I was last weekend)

    Anyway, why do you need to have a 'beatiful, stylish' keyboard? It's not like you are supposed to look at the thing as you type (or does that say something about Mac users? :D)

    Sorry, I live in Mac-land, where £28 for anything is cheap. This one is £55!

    I see it when I'm not typing. It looks very nice sitting on my desk.

    They work with a pc too, although agree the imac is better looking ;)
    You simply change the keyboard mapping for the Windows and mac buttons :)
