Review title: good overview of fortifications Product review: This book provides good overview of how fortifications of this period and specifically this site were probably built (i.e., heavy use of mud bricks, etc.). Good history of different layers of Troys fortifications also provided along with good illustrations. Plenty of conjecture but this is characteristic of all books covering this topic. Also some good discussion of siege warfare and warfare in general during this period.
Ans: increase

Review title: Useless Product review: Maybe some cats like these, but mine want nothing to do with them. I think part of it is the extremely gummy texture. I definitely wasn't expecting that.

Review title: Wow - that's a loud spacebar! Product review: The main keys are fairly quiet, but the spacebar "clacks" like a gun going off in comparison. After 5+ years (this keyboard was introduced in 2005) I would have thought Microsoft would have fixed this issue that has been mentioned in even it's earliest reviews - see "Microsoft Natural Keyboard" for yourself on wikipedia and read the "any luck on the SPACE bar?" discussion here on Amazon. Buyer Beware! Microsoft - fix your S*tuff!The keyboard does look sleek though -- the only reason for the 2 stars!The main keys are a bit quieter than my 10+ yr old "Microsoft Natural Keyboard" but overall that one is quieter compared to the constant "clack" (like there's ducks in my office) of the space bar. I still prefer my old PS/2 white (now yellow) keyboard w/o all of the "hot keys" which is working great still but just no pretty anymore. =(
