Before my GS keyboard ASB port quit, I had one.  Absolutely love(d) it.
One of the best accessories to get after you buy everything else for
your computer.  I can put the keyboard in my lap and put food on the
lip of the desk where the keyboard was.  When I eat over the keyboard
(most of the time), and I spill crumbs/coffee/beer, I just get some
water, turn the keyboard on the side, and pour water over the keys.
Voila!  Clean keyboard.

I bought my GS system used, and when I took the safeskin off, the
keyboard looked brand new.

By the way, does anyone repair GS keyboards?  My left ADB port died of that
solder-cracking problem.  I tried to put some fresh solder on each "point",
but it still doesn't work.
