• It says it requires Apple silicon, which means it needs to be a newer, non-Intel Mac.

• Touch ID will NOT work on non-Mac products (it does not even work with my iPad Air 5, which has the M1 processor AND Touch ID already), so I do not think you would want to use this with anything outside of the Apple ecosystem. For the price, lack of backlighting, and the fact that the ctrl/fn/alt/cmd/opt/win keys are all different and in a different layout, you would be better off with another keyboard from another manufacturer. That is, unless you need this keyboard and wish to pair it with a second PC or something. Then, you MAY have limited functionality with a Windows- or Linux-based system. But again, for something like that, you still might be better off with a third-party keyboard which provides support for multiple operating systems AND can switch easily between them.
