    I'm curious to know why you're asking this here, since it has nothing to do with "Getting hardware to work with Ubuntu/Linux".
    But bob did give you the answer - MS stopped making peripherals last year and sold the license to Incase.

    I'm curious to know why Yellow Pasque referred to me as "bot bob"? Perhaps a typo?

    There are plenty of competitors' keyboards and mice in the marketplace.
