The Bottom Line:
Buy if you get the chance over any other keyboard.
I would have to say replacing my keyboard and mouse was very worth the $60 at Best Buy. I'd have to say compared to other Microsoft desktops the best. With the "bend" in the keyboard helps a lot to keep your wrists from cramping, also the keys are much easier to press compared to other keyboards. The mouse is very smooth, no mouse pad needed. Also the horizontal scroll on the mouse is a lot of help when it comes to wide web pages. But I'd have to say the best feature is the customizable keys and media buttons. With the ability to pause without having to bring up the media player and pausing and bringing up my most used applications quickly cuts my junk time into useful time. So even if it means paying twice as much for this keyboard/mouse it's much worth it. Also the easy access keys on the side help get to certain documents, such as My Documents. For those keys it's also very nice that the software lets you customize those also with functions or applications. The same with the mouse, the center click, left click, and right click are all customizable. Lastly the zoom key helps a lot with being farther away or just small font on web pages.
