[*]IT HAS AN OFF SWITCH![/list] The off switch is very important. When my cats jump up on the desk, I reach for the off-switch, because they invariably go for the keyboard and push buttons before I can get them down. When I carry the keyboard elsewhere while troubleshooting and needing to type commands from a distance, the Off switch keeps me from messing up things by accidentally pushing buttons before I get there.

And best of all, when my computer is sleeping, I can turn the keyboard off so that it stays that way. If someone accidentally touches a button on the keyboard, or a cat gets up on the desk in my absence, the computer remains asleep.

I wish all input devices had off-switches.

And it has a numeric key pad... I so need one of these!

Actually, specify the K750-Mac. It's the white one with the Mac key layout. (scroll down) The black one is the PC version.

Correction: it appears you can get the Mac version in either black OR white. But you do have to specify K750-Mac.

This just keeps getting better. I find a white keyboard easier to read.

That is incorrect. I have a black Mac version.

You needed to read the next line. Yes, you can get black OR white Mac versions. I have the white one.
