“I have a complaint about my Retro Classic Artisan keyboard. It’s so beautiful - such a work of art - that I have trouble getting my work done because I just stare at the keyboard. It’s just this classic piece of completely retro industrial art I can’t take my eyes off of. This is all your fault.”
-Thomas Leo

“Hey folks – absolutely loving my Artisan, which is getting many amazed comments at work. Very excited to hear that a matching mouse is planned – hoping it’ll be ambidextrous for left-handed folk like me…”

“Hello, I just received my Onyx keyboard and I’m loving it (this is my first Azio product). I want to congratulate you for doing this exquisite piece. On the other hand, I would like to ask for any update on the status on the unique backers plaque I once read about. Is there any extra info on that? Once again, congratulations for making this elegant keyboard (now I’m typing just because I like how it feels to type on this keyboard). Thank you very much. Keep up the good work!”
