yes, it is weak. they did a keyboard "story" a few days ago that was equally crappy.
they should really call these things "the best mice/keyboards that our local office depot had in stock when we decided to generate web traffic by making some lame articles and posting them to slashdot". whatever.
i was happy to see several people in the comments of their keyboard article mentioned geekhack.org and some of the great keyboards discussed here.
