After using many keyboards over the years, I still love one of my first, the HP 5185-2027 that originally came with my HP Pavilion 780C desktop PC that I bought in about 2000. I still use that computer for email and low priority stuff and it has served me very well through the years. (All that I have replaced was the power supply about three years ago.) I absolutely loved the keyboard that came with it and it too never failed me. The keys had a good sturdy feel to them and overall the keyboard just felt "right" to me. The blue LED back lighting along the top internet buttons were an added plus factor, especially at night. All was well with that HP keyboard until a nameless family member spilled a cup of coffee on it. That killed it instantly. I replaced it with other keyboards from various manufacturers over the years but none of them felt as good to me as that original HP 5185-2027. I searched online for a new one but all that I found were well used ones that were too expensive. Thanks to eBay, I now have a brand new HP 5185-2027 keyboard that came in its original packaging. The price was great and I absolutely *LOVE* my new old keyboard! It's like going back in time to when I first got my HP Pavilion 780C. I never uninstalled the original keyboard driver in my PC so all of the keyboard functions work perfectly. Even the blue LED back lighting on the internet buttons works and it looks just as cool as it did back in 2000. I may not look exactly the same as I did in 2000 but my computer keyboard does. There are some people out there that refuse to type on anything other than this HP 5185-2027 keyboard. (I'm typing this review on mine and it is still working just fine.) I hope to keep this one even longer than my old one and that should not be a problem because that nameless family member and their deadly keyboard killing coffee are no longer using my computer - thank goodness!Read full review

I've been using this keyboard forEVER. When mine started acting up, I tried replacing it with one of the new-fangled models, but they just weren't a comfortable fit. Looked for the model number on ebay, and bingo! Thanks for making it available to me!

I have typed a long time on many keyboards. This is the #1 best, most sturdy, multi-function, lighted key board I have ever used. If I could just figure out how to get the lights working...
