I was looking for a keyboard/mouse combo that was quiet! I found this very reasonably priced duo on display in the store, and after comparing it to the other keyboards, I found that it was just what I wanted! Very quiet with a nice touch to the keyboard - the mouse is quiet as well. A great product at a nice price.

Bought this for a new desktop. The software loaded fine, and the keyboard was good, which is why this product is getting 2 stars instead of 1. I absolutely could not get the mouse to track correctly. I would have to constantly toggle it to get it to even move, then trying to get it across the screen was a struggle. So I packed it all back up and exchanged it for the Logitech Wave set, which works much better. =)

Comments about Microsoft Wireless Media Desktop 1000:

My keyboard was becoming sticky so purchased this with one of our frequent on line orders. Three months later current keyboard croaked and put this into service. For three days it lost it's connectivity every third character.

Staples WOULD NOT refund because we had for longer than the return policy permits.

Comments about Microsoft Wireless Media Desktop 1000:

I've had this setup for a few months now and I like it. It's pretty straightforward without a lot of excess features, but the included features are helpful. The keyboard keys are nice and quiet, which I really like. I can't stand a loud keyboard. The keyboard connection has never been lost but the mouse connection does get finicky occasionally, even though the mouse is only a foot away from the receiver on my desktop. This is a little problematic, so don't expect to have the receiver 6' away as the specs state. Overall, I'm pretty happy with it.
