Title: Great little keyboard
Review: I hesitated busying this because it had some unfavorable reviews. I bought it anyway and really am glad I did. The price is right for sure. I've had it for about 6 months and it's been working like a dream. A+

Title: Fixed the other keyboard
Review: Using this off-brand keyboard for a few days fixed the official name-brand keyboard. I know this is a ridiculous claim, but here's what happened:At work we have an iMac for secondary purposes (such as making sure stuff also works on iOS and watching Netflix). It doesn't get used much, but it is beyond its warranty. The $50+ official Macintosh keyboard that came with it one day suddenly stopped responding to presses of the spacebar. (Everything else still worked.) I removed, cleaned, and reattached the spacebar a few times, and also rebooted the machine several times, but the spacebar would not start working again. (Apparently spacebar failure is very common in official Macintosh keyboards.)For the sake of typing the space character, I hooked up a for-Windows PC USB keyboard that I bought at the second-hand thrift store for a whole dollar. I also reattached the original Mac keyboard for the usefulness of its extra buttons such as the volume controls. This was an acceptable arrangement for a while, but then the Mac spacebar started to get and remain "stuck," even after I fully removed the physical key. (The experienced effect was that web pages would scroll all the way down, because that's what typically happens when you hammer the spacebar when no input field has focus. Netflix playback also experienced seizures because the spacebar pauses and resumes videos.)I detached the fancy-pants aluminum keyboard because of its latest malfunction, leaving us with just the plain ol' PC keyboard. Again, this was a mostly acceptable solution, but we eventually decided we should get an operating-system-appropriate keyboard since the Windows key doesn't behave like the Quatrefoil key and the PC F[unction] keys don't do any of the extra stuff that the Mac F[unction] keys do, so we ordered this one for $20.After a few days of use, I was about to put away the old Mac keyboard when I thought of trying one more test: I went to keyboardtester-dot-com, plugged in the old keyboard and started mashing keys. To my surprise, the spacebar was working properly again!We put this new keyboard back in its box and we're holding on to it as an emergency backup, but unless the official Mac keyboard craps out again, we'll probably never ever use it again (for lack of need).By the way, this "Macally 103 Key Full-Size USB Keyboard with Short-Cut Keys for Mac" isn't really full-size; it's about an inch narrower than an actual "full-size" keyboard, which is achieved by smooshing the arrow keys and the six above between the main keys and the num pad, so its actually a "compact keyboard (with num pad)."The keys are comfortable to press, but one person said she kept getting confused by the compact arrangement of the arrows and the six above. I should knock a star off for this, but this product earns an extra 10 stars for A) having a functioning spacebar, B) fixing the other keyboard, and C) not being *incredibly* overpriced like everything else for Mac is.

Title: It is a bit Cheap . . .
Review: If you don't look too closely at this keyboard it looks reasonably like an official Mac keyboard to take a chance. It has a similar style to the aluminum keyboards that you say "What the Hey!" and perhaps buy it. It is less than 20 dollars, after all! And you would be half right. As other reviews said this is a cheap keyboard. It feels and sounds cheap. It is very noisy when typing. It doesn't bother me that much, but hey! Maybe it would bother you. It doesn't bother me.It is reasonably enough like the aluminum keyboards that you will feel at home. It is a lot cheaper in construction than those aluminum models, but it is comfortable to use. I am typing up this review with the keyboard right now. The keys are all where you expect them to be and it doesn't feel too small or too big. The special keys do work at the top of the keyboard. Although several of them are very different from a official keyboard. They seem to provide little purpose. Which is annoying because all the FN buttons have a special function on it. So that means if you need to use any button from F1 to F15, you'll be pushing the FN button first.Num lock doesn't appear to work but the keypad works anyway. It is a mac style keyboard, so that's cool. That means that Option and Command buttons are in the places that you need them to be and at the right size. That was one of the most important reasons why I bought this keyboard - was so that I had that set up like that.My only real complaint is the fact that it is missing USB ports. True Mac keyboards all have them (save the bluetooth ones) and I expected it here. Don't. They are not here. So, I ended up buying a USB hub to extend the ports on my mac. Since I no longer have a port to plug my mouse into. That really annoys me, but it is not enough for me to return the sucker.Overall, I like the size, shape, and placement of the buttons. It is comfortable to use. Even if it is loud. Yeah it's cheap, but considering the price of a new "wired" Mac Keyboard - I'll stick with this one. That is until it breaks!

Title: It works with my MAC
Review: I've tried a couple of other keyboards that are not made by Apple and claim to work with a Mac. They always have problems. This one ACTUALLY WORKS! I plugged it in and the typing keys and number keys all worked perfectly. It comes with a prompt when my MAC found it as a new device, that asked me to do a couple of things (hold down the COMMAND key with a specified number key to make some of the functions work correctly). I have not had a single problem with it, and have removed it from my MAC to travel and then reconnected (not having to always put it in the same port) and it's worked flawlessly.I do like the feeling of typing where I have to actually push the keys down instead of a slight tap. I'm a touch typist and work on typing words most of the day. I'm not a gamer so cannot speak to that. My only complaint is that it is noisier than using a membrane keyboard. But the feedback to my typing is worth that little bit of noise. If there is someone in the room working alongside me, they might find it problematic. However, 99% of the time I am alone in my office. Good price, good value, and does everything I need.

Review: Lo he estado usando conectado a mi Macbook Pro desde hace ya seis meses, nunca he tenido problemas con su funcionamiento. El tipo de plástico del que está hecho no es premium, por ese precio no lo esperaba, pero sorprendentemente se siente muy bien al tacto, las teclas responden inmediatamente (como cabe esperar) y lo mejor de todo es que tiene un diseño limpio sin extras innecesarios. No tiene la tecla ñ, pero en mi caso tampoco la necesita, todas las mac tienen configuradas las letras opcionales cuando las dejas presionadas, así que si se quiere insertar esta letra solo hay que dejar pulsada la tecla N y aparece como opción. La calidad del material es acorde al precio, no hay mucho que se pueda hacer en ese aspecto, aun así por su buen desempeño lo recomiendo ampliamente.

Review: Arrived so fast! Its the first keyboard I have bought in years having used a laptop for years and the first thing I realised about the keyboard itself is how tactile and well made the keys are. They are a lot more meatier than I thought and It feels like every key I press down responds with quality and with great response.Works great with Mac applications and is very very useful having the shortcut keys at the top.Very very impressed!
