    This transaction deserves five star rating for the experience; the product was shipped very quickly; was packaged to prevent any in transit damage; was very accurately described and after about 35 minutes of opening the product we had it up and operating as it should simply because the batteries had leaked onto the keyboard; I communication was excellent.
