Pretty much as per the title.
You get used to things and I'm comfortable with it. Have had a couple over the years. Current one hasn't failed but I'd like a spare for if and when it does.
It has a handy volume control which I use and there's a calculator button too. I just took a chance on a used one on ebay for a tenner but would welcome options please. Ideally needs to be the same height or less (45mm) .... I have a pull out tray for it and there's limited space. Logitech seems a popular option. I must have had one in the past but can't remember why I changed to this one.
Thanks.

Ta for the above. I spotted that and it's out of stock so I registered my interest.0

Logitech are a good option.
I have a Logitech 780 Bluetooth keyboard which is low profile, separate number section and so far its done 5 years of pretty much daily use (I only replaced the original batteries a month or so ago)
Edit: this wired Logitech looks to be most similar to your Microsoft keyboard, currently £9.99 down from £12.99 on Amazon.

I have both Logitech (K540) and Cherry (Stream) keyboards that I use on a daily basis (about 10 hours per day).
Both are good but I prefer the key action on the Cherry.
I have tried much more expensive keyboards and quite honestly felt they offered little for the additional cost.Past caring about first world problems.0 -

There are lots of Microsoft 600 Keyboards on eBay including some brand new ones.The comments I post are my personal opinion. While I try to check everything is correct before posting, I can and do make mistakes, so always try to check official information sources before relying on my posts.0

Yes, I had a look, thanks. I did mention earlier that I ordered a used one a few days ago. Hasn't arrived yet. Hoping it'll be OK.
