Editorial Reviews:

A stylish Apple computer deserves an equally stylish keyboard. The Kensington SlimType Keyboard for Apple Computers takes its inspiration from Apple? s distinctive sleek lines and contemporary design. That low-profile form is then packed with performance and convenience functions. Low-travel, scissor-switch technology delivers a crisp, responsive touch for faster typing. And multimedia hot keys provide intuitive, one-button control of audio and video playback.

Summary: Good keyboard
Comment: I bought this to use with my Macbook in closed-lid mode.
It installs easily on the Mac running OS X. Additional software was only necessary to map the "hotkeys" that control multimedia.
Great size, keys have a good feel to them. I almost didn't buy this because of what people said about the key clicking. I hate keyboards with a hard click. I wouldn't call the response of these keys a click, because the keys themselves do not make any noise whatsoever. It is just the right amount of resistance to finger pressure. The only noise comes from firmly and rapidly pressing the keys all the way down so they "bottom out".
Anyway, this is a good keyboard, and functions as advertised.

Summary: soft touching, but uncommonn layout.
Comment: Keys on this keyboard have nice feel. Hope they could last. NO USB plugs on the board, which is fine for me, because my PowerG4 has two USB plugs. But, .... Well, I was searching for images of this keyboard before ordering it, but only found a slanted one available on the internet, the same as we saw on Amazon page. I ordered it, anyway.
Now, I can tell that the keyboard has very uncommon layout for its button line:
Ctrl-Ctrl-Opt-Apple---Space---Apple-Opt-Ctrl-Help
* Two Ctrl keys are on the left.
* The space bar is very short, even shorter than the one on powerG4.
* The Help key is next to the right Ctrl.
Plus, NO separate area for arrow keys & page up/down, they are all close to Delete, Enter, Shift keys on the left.
I was disappointed. As an UNIX (MAC OS X) user, I like to have clean and large Ctrl, Space, Return, Shift, Back-Delete keys that are not easily messed up with other keys. BTW, you can find a similar Kensington Slim Type Keyboard - PC(64365) to get the idea about key layout image of this board.
In order to keep this keyboard slim, why could Kensington simply cut the decorated surrounded margin and leave space between the Enter key and Page Up/Dn?

Summary: usb ports a must
Comment: I sent the keyboard back. It didn't have any additional usb ports, not even one for the mouse! Not worth it. Didn't feel like the new Apple keyboard at all.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Inexpensive White Mac Keyboard
Comment: If you're purchasing a Mac Mini and want to stay white, then this is a low cost way to use a keyboard that looks like a Mac Keyboard, not a PC. The chrome is a bit unnecessary. It works well.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Too small for me
Comment: This is a small keyboard. I prefer a full-size keyboard and in retrospect should have spent a little more and gotten the Apple Keyboard Kit. This keyboard is too small for me and I make a lot of mistakes.
