Re: The Bold Statements Thread
Save for 3 regrettable years in the wilderness during college with a mushy piece of shit Logitech generic, every ASCII character I have ever typed into a Personal Flex-puter in a non-workplace setting in my entire life from December 1986 to this post has been on this singular object:
Manufacture date on the back: 07 OCT 86.
It's loud like the world is coming to an end when I'm banging out a rant, ergonomically perfect, dishwasher-safe, does not have a single faded keycap, has taken literally gallons of coffee and soda spills, has been puked on, has outlived 8 PC's and every version of Windows since Version 1.06, and is heavy enough to crack your fucking skull wide open if swung as a deadly weapon...and then calmly be returned to the desktop so I can write about how it was justified. AND I WILL BE BURIED WITH IT. YOU VULTURES CANNOT HAVE MY MODEL M!

Yeah, fuck keyboards. When the hell are those laser projected ones going to come out? Anything else is an ergonomic nightmare from where I sit.Wolter wrote:I can't remember the last time I had a keyboard I enjoyed. Possibly never?eumaas wrote:I miss keyboards like that, actually.

All of you Star Wars people are sick, sad, and demented. I want you to take a moment and feel shame. You can't even screw a prostitute in Old San Juan anymore without Star Wars getting their grubby little fingers involved.

They've been on the market for awhile now. The reviews I've read suggest they're glitchy. Hard on your fingertips and if you're working under fluorescent lighting, the accuracy is sporadic.Kory wrote:Yeah, fuck keyboards. When the hell are those laser projected ones going to come out?
