rob356 Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 I am going to get a new iMac. The question I have is that does apple's newer model keyboards suck? I mean do the keyes behave like they do on a regular keyboard, or do they requrie more pressure to push? Has anyone found it a nusance that the mireless version is lacking a num pad? because if id does suck, then I can order a referbished previous generation model fro apple too.

U.C. Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 I infact quite like the new keyboard. Though tends to get dirty very fast and can be a plain to clean. The feel is like that of a laptop keyboard. No idea about the wireless version.

errandwolfe Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 I'll second that. I have the aluminum wired keyboard, it is actually a fantastic keyboard. The keys are spaced perfectly, and it only requires a very light touch to type. The only complaint (if you could even call it that) is that the USB ports are a bit awkward. Rather then being right along the sides, they are recessed under the keyboard.

Paranoid Marvin Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 I was a skeptic, but the wired kb is awesome. I wish I had got it instead of my logitech bundle, lol Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/74458-new-model-apple-keyboard/#findComment-526194 Share on other sites More sharing options...
bofors Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 The question I have is that does apple's newer model keyboards suck? I use real Apple keyboards for my Hackintoshs and was thinking WTF after looking at the new Apple keyboards.

consolation Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 As a bonus, plugging my one in fixed sleep on my rig, until I broke it again with EFI and stock kernel....

nagal Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 Another here for loving the new aluminum keyboard. It is so easy to type on I am really amazed by it.

lpranal Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 It's definitely one of the best keyboards I've used. I actually was using a previous gen iMac keyboard at another office today, and i went back to my own... the new aluminum model stands head and shoulders above the previous version which was, in it's day, pretty good. It's just right. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/74458-new-model-apple-keyboard/#findComment-527555 Share on other sites More sharing options...
