Touch me like you want it, and I'll screw your mind!

With a keyboard can and I will gladly give up unnecessary radio signals. For where there is a keyboard to 99%? Exactly; Of course before the screen and close the computer. Therefore, I came only with a cable into the house.

I am thrilled with notebook keys, because the good and fast write feeling, I wanted a correspondingly equipped keyboard for my desktop machine.
The close button assignment as a notebook must definitely not be in a full-blown desktop PC. Therefore me of standards-based design of the keyboard layouts like extremely good! Everything can be found there, where it belongs for a full-blown keyboard.

The keyboard is just the most basic modifier keys (Leiser | Next Track Mute | Lauter | Previous title | | Start / Pause) equipped. The special keys can be under Win XP (or higher), in most standard programs (such as Winamp, Windows Media Player, i-tunes), without, properly use the software installation. That's exactly what I wanted.
My previous keyboard was equipped with all sorts of extra buttons, which was firstly not used for 98% and secondly often was disturbing because the whole keyboard was just overloaded and confusing.
Here shows the STREAM, that the concentration on the essentials was a well-considered step.

The processing of the stream makes a very good impression. The housing is generally very flat, the keys are just a little out of the housing. The heavy weight of the keyboard makes them appear very valuable. It also gives her an extremely good stability, so that an accidental displacement of the keyboard is hardly possible. The griffsymphatischen materials of the case and the buttons are on a good level. The pressure point of the keys is just right. Clearly defined, firm, but not stiff. This accidental taps is excluded. The not too loud Anschlagston the key sounds neither cheap nor it clatters while writing penetrant.

The connection of the plug and play keyboard comes either via USB or PS / 2 of equip. Last but not least sets of Cherry STREAM nor a 3-year manufacturer's warranty with in the carton.

Conclusion:
I have the keyboard now about 4 months and I would buy them again at any time. The price / performance ratio is here to provide any more.
Anyone looking for a flat, well-made keyboard and no more than the standard modifier keys needed can not get to the STREAM. Cherry has laid a good bit higher here the bar for affordable, high-quality keyboard.
