The main attraction of this desktop combo is the keyboard. It uses a similar shape and layout to Microsoft's Comfort Curve keyboards, with a slight six-degree angle that's meant to be easier on the wrists for those extended typing sessions.
The curve isn't as drastic as some of the other ergonomic keyboards out there and it doesn't take long before you're typing at a reasonable pace. The keys make a soft sound when pressed, which will ensure a fairly quiet typing experience. The row of F keys have been shrunk down and have a lower profile at the top of the keyboard, which can be annoying for those who use them regularly. Finally, there are five customisable buttons that can be configured to open a program, file or web page using the supplied software.
To accommodate these additional buttons, the caps lock, num lock and scoll lock indicator LEDs have been removed, which is a minor annoyance. For the Windows 7 or Vista users, the keyboard has a button dedicated to using the highly useless Flip 3D function, though this is only available if Aero is activated.
