I never did get much of an appreciation for Labtec stuff. Granted, this BTS board is cheap, but it doesn't feel cheap, if you see what I'm saying. The keys are scissor-action (yes, yes, chuckles from the back of the room) which makes typing on it feel like typing on a laptop keyboard. Same 100-key layout, as well, complete with [ FN ] keys and their usual combinations. Overall, though, it's a VERY nice board, and had I my old computer still, I would have been half-tempted to get a board like this one instead of opting for a more expensive Logitech board.
