    Running multiple microsoft comfort keyboards


    hiI have a microsoft comfort keyboard 5050 that I use with my desktop, connecting via the USB dongle that came with the keyboard.I now also have a laptop and I want to be able to use the same keyboard for the laptop.If I buy another keyboard, will it be uniquely paired with the USB dongle or will the two keyboards interfere with each other?thanks

    :)
