sometimes i hate cnet


So, I'm considering purchasing this keyboard. Part of my ritual electronics buying habits is a quick visit to cnet for their "reviews."

The editors there give it 6.7 out of 10. Hm. Why?
1) They don't like the curved keys. Okay, understandable.
2) "Doesn't grip your desk as well as it should."

Those are the big cons? Wow, what an insightful synopsis of the review.

Upon further reading, they don't like the keyboard due to it's funky keys and difficult installation. They seemed to like all the other features. I'll be installing media center on my machine sometime in the near future, so this keyboard looks like a good choice for me. Woo woo!
