    Hi
    Hope this is the right place:)
    Wanted to get some info before I went and spent some money.

    My wife hates the keyboard on her laptop. wants a regular key board.

    I looked for a wireless (USB receiver there is no PS|2 plug) keyboard and mouse on some web sites, but most say "DeskTop" my question is.

    Will they work on a laptop?

    Thanks
    Geri

    Yes, no reason why not. As I recall we have a wireless keyboard for our club's laptop.

    If you want a definitive answer I will hitch up my wireless (USB receiver) keyboard to my laptop and report back. Won't be until tomorrow though as it is late here and other things to do.

    I'll check back in the morning to see if you are still wanting confirmation.
