    I got this keyboard a few months ago. Not bad and with a little registry hacking, you can use the shortcuts for anything you want. Hehe, but I prefer my ms natural pro so I sold it to my friend for $10. hehehe.

    For you people asking about the rocketboard...it's a keyboard for crying out loud, nothing special...it should work under both win2k and winnt4 and whatnot, however you may not be able to use those corny orange keys at the top if you don't install their software. boohoo. Actually, I set up an old computer for downloading/burning in my basement a few weeks ago, and used that keyboard..dual boot with win2k and win98se...

    It should be. 2000 has USB support.

    Question

    You still have to pay $7.95 for shipping, right?

    apparently, with the hack you can make the programmable buttons do ANYTHING not just the preprogrammed CRAP...

    Yes, actually, there is an install program other that the rocketboard software. If you use that, you can program the buttons much easier. It's a nice keyboard, and who cares if it craps out. I already ordered another one. Hope this helps.

    my $.02:
    I ordered one thinking it would be an okay backup but after opening and typing on it for a few, I tossed my dell kb and I love this one. Get this, I have the reg hack and dont even use the buttons...the keys respond well, better than any kb i've ever used...bottom line: well worth the effort.
