So this is my new keyboard...

Sexy isn't it!?

It's the new offering from Apple and is currently shipping with the new iMac. I picked up this wired USB version (also comes in wireless but that's too much smoke and mirrors for me) because I've been using a MacBook for a while now and have come to like the keyboard on the MB very very much. This new keyboard gives me the same luxurious feel on my PC that I've come to appreciate from my MB.

It works fantastically with SLED10 and seems to work perfectly with Windows XP, based on my experience with a virtual machine.

I'm likening the key press to what a sniper might be feeling as he rests his finger on the trigger of his weapon. There is enough resistance so you know you've pressed the key, but requires no effort to type continuously. Fantastic all round if you ask me.

Apple are masters of design and function, they prove it over and over again.
