bought a new kb

Post by ghettoside »

I finally broke down and bought a new keyboard tonite. My spacebar was shot.

HP Internet keyboard (model 5183). $20 at Walmart. Feels nice so far!

The last one I bought was from walmart, $10 Durabrand... pos only lasted a few months. Hopefully I get more life out of this one.

It's nice to not have to hammer every key. :p

I'll try one of those next time if I'm not satisfied w/ this one. Thanks.

That durabrand was a real pos. I suppose if your Mom doesn't messenger, or use the kb much, it's prolly fine.

I've been eying one them newfangled Logitech wireless Kb/mouse setups...there's only like 145 different versions to choose from, so yeah I'm confused....I like a small mouse and the nicer versions have mouse's the size of small dogs. They make my hand cramp when i play games...was actually thinking about getting the Revolution VX(meant for notebooks) but have not made my final decision on this matter yet.

The MX/VX are nice. I am using the MX myself, I must say it's one of the best mouse made! Just a little insight from myself: http://www.chrisyiu.com/content/view/35/9/

We have the VX on sale here at Staples up in Canada this week for $39.99, tempted but i figured i really dont' need another mouse for my Macbook pro...

Ya maybe, if you wanted like 2,890,607,867,468,908,564,908 extra choices.

If you were a member of a tech related forum and posted there, they might have narrowed it down to about 8,600,367,448 choices.
