![]() While many a Mac user has lamented this decision, the design has two significant advantages over a full-size keyboard. The Wireless Keyboard, at 11.1 inches wide by 5.1 inches deep, looks like Apple took the standard version and lopped off everything to the right of the return key-it’s missing the numeric keypad and end/home group, although the arrow keys have been moved beneath the right-hand shift key. At the rear is a half-inch-thick bar, spanning the width of the keyboard, that hosts two USB ports and raises the rear of the keyboard slightly. Yet the Apple Keyboard takes up less space than most full-size models because it sports very little open space around the edges, as well as a key layout that uses smaller function keys (F-keys) positioned flush against the top of the number row. At just over a quarter of an inch thick-perhaps the thinnest models on the market-each has a white plastic base and thin, white keys that look and feel almost exactly like those on Apple’s current MacBook line.Īpple’s wired Keyboard viewed from the sideĪt 16.9 inches wide by 5 inches deep, the standard Apple Keyboard features a full complement of standard keys (including a numeric keypad), full-size directional-arrow keys, and the traditional home/end/page up/page down/delete group-although instead of a help key, this group includes an fn key (a modifier key that gives some keys a dual purpose). ![]() As with the current iMac line, both Apple keyboards are made of anodized aluminum.
