Posted: Fri Dec 20, 2002 4:51 pm Post subject: Needing A New Keyboard |
|
|
I am having too many problems with this POS I have now. I was wondering what some of you might have and/or would recommend. I would prefer to have other functions on it as well such as volume control, etc.... I'm not sure if it matters but I am running XP. Any help would be appreciated. _________________

Every time I bought a logitech keyboard it would go bad (keys) within a year. I just kept buying them though heh. MErf had a couple microsoft internet keyboards for awile, said he never had a problem with them so I bought one and its been great.
I do like logitech optical mice. Never a problem with them. Which i've seen/had with microsoft mice. _________________

Well do to some of the responses and IM's I went out and purchased my keyboard. I got a Microsoft Office Keyboard. I haven't installed anything yet but hopefully the next time I'm in game my damn keys will actually work . Thx for all the responses thus far. Hopefully this one works out.
**Edit/Update** After a few in game tests, I have found that this thing is great. It's kinda wierd not having to hit the same button 3 times to get what you want. Thx again for all the advice. For those of you that are curious, this is the one I got ------> http://www.bestbuy.com/detail.asp?e=11173483&m=488&cat=549&scat=551 _________________

I do recommend the split board type. For me it is perfect, I can't stand the straight ones they make my wrists bend, and I have to hold my arms tight to my sides. _________________ Only in America......do they have drive-up ATM machines with Braille lettering. |

My roommate just bought the Logitech Elite... he loves it. It has a lot of hot keys for Windows. It was $50.
I am considering getting one that is just all plastic. Hard to explain, but it is like a mat that just sits there all squishy like. It is really kinda groovy. They run around $20. No worries of getting food under your keys. _________________
