We've done them in the past.
Not opposed - can get a ton of them as they are fairly high margin parts... but it can become a thankless and repetitive task. You want to sign up? Lolol
I can't imagine how you would do an objective keyboard review. Keyboards, like monitors, are one of those highly subjective peripherals. I'm sure you could measure decibels per click and nm of force to actuate and keystrokes per second, etc etc, but those numbers don't really mean a lot compared to just sitting down in front of one and typing The Quick Brown Fox...
Oh I would suck at keyboard reviews...
90 percent of them would be....
No 10key... crap.
This one has 10key... keys are mushy... ok.
This one has 10 key, keys make clicks and are good and responsive. Good.
This one has 10 key, keys make clicks... but quiet clicks. Good if you like that.
Oh and there might be other features... but I don't care about those... this is a keyboard first.
Comes with special software to unlock all features. - a grade level.
