What brand of computer keyboard is pictured in Avid's ad for Pro Tools 9 Native?? It's the ad which shows a Mac Pro, the "colored keys keyboard and a slim mouse. It doesn't appear to be the same slim pro tools colored keys keyboard that Logic Keyboards makes for the Mac based on their Mac Pro keyboard.

Anyone know??

Thanks!

I don't believe that's it. Here's a link from Avid's site which is the ad I'm talking about. I don't think that is the same keyboard your referring to.

Yep that's it (it's just blurry and Photoshopped- and excuse IMS picture, it's hard to tell that it's the same thing from our pic) - and they show it with a standard Apple Magic Mouse:

I like using the Magic Mouse - but I like the Magic Track Pad better:

It's wireless, and it perches on the top of a keyboard controller or mixer a little better than the Magic Mouse. The Magic Mouse has a much smaller area for scrolling/swiping and it's harder to learn it... the Trackpad is very easy to begin to use.

These look like the old style Mac keyboards (which I like) and not the newer slimline models - is that right?
