Pepsi… destroyer of keyboards

by Alan McCloskeyJune 14, 2008November 28, 20140115

I’ve been using ergonomic keyboards ever since they came out… I just can’t have my hands all scrunched up on a “normal” keyboard… it’s stoopid… and some of the best gaming keyboards are NOT ergonomic at all.

I’ve been using the latest Microsoft ergonomic keyboard… it’s quiet and comfortable, but there are virtually no extra features on it… just some lame “quick-assign” buttons to open up web pages or whatever… not even media controlls.

So anyway I totally spilled pepsi on the side of the keyboard… I thought I caught it in time, but I went to use the computer this morning, and most of the keys wouldn’t work… I lifted up the keyboard and saw a pool of brown liquid… ugh.  I flipped they keyboard upside down so it can drain… hopefully it can be revived.

I’m using the Razer Lycossa keyboard (reviewed here) right now… it’s a fine keyboard and the keys have a nice rubbery feel to them, but my hands are still all squished together.  I will say that the low profile of the keys make for shorter finger movements, though

So now I have to find a new ergonomic keyboard, and right now the only thing out is the same MS one I’ve been using. 

Maybe it’s time to whip out the OCMS credit card and test out some keyboards for review… a fine idea, but I’m still backlogged on other reviews I have to get out…
