I bought a new keyboard...

...that I had to post about it. You know, as an excuse to type.

Logitech Elite, the $30 kind, whatever the proper name is. I really like it, maybe because it's the first keyboard I've used that cost more than $10.

Type type type type.

I'd have liked to get a Bluetooth model, but those are so expensive. It's true what you say, though. I hadn't thought about it that way.

I've got one. It's nice, but the F-Lock key is a huuuuge PITA.

Yeah, it's really odd that they have the function keys... non-functional by default. Forget "Undo"; when I hit F5 I want a refresh!

I haven't been bothered by having to hit F-Lock when I turn on the PC, though. Not yet.

flock is like that on my split keys ms kb. its like that on all of em it seems. annoying but i've gotten used to pushing it once after boot. i've been trained i guess not that i reboot much so its not a big burden

Flock really is a PITA. There is some registry fix out there supposedly that will keep Flock on when switching systems with a KVM and such but it only works with PS/2 connected keyboards. Mine is USB connected to my USB KVM.

I'm still using the ol' keyboard from the Tandy of '91... works great, no extra keys to worry about.

I got an MS internet keyboard for $5 when it was on sale. The MSRP is probably more around $20. So yea, you can go for something worth a good amount yet pay a small fee for it. Type type type! This thing also types really well
