I bought one of their keyboards because it was raved about by an Infoworld
columnist (Gibson).  The keyboard ain't that great - you can get the tactile
and audible "click" feedback without having the key detected if you don't
press it all the way.  They reproduced the guy's review in subsequent
advertising, but personally, I think they paid the guy off.  It may be a good
computer though.  Just my two cents worth.
