The only problem I have with the extended keyboard is that the key
which is to the left of A is caps lock, rather than control, which is
west south west from Z.  If you're used to IBM pc keyboards you'll
like that, but if you touch type, expecting control to be to the left
of A, you'll be very frustrated.  Having some of the other keys is
useful, but this control key placement is such a problem that, if I
can't figure out how to change the placement (including destructive
changes to the keyboard), I'll be stepping down to the other keyboard.

The exact same keyboard can be found pictured in numerous ads in PC
Magazine.  (look for ads for Keytronics)
