I Need A New Keyboard

Until then, however, I'm going to order the Max Keyboard Nighthawk Pro X suggested by Mr. patteeu (thank you, sir). I shall forego wireless technology, but I shall own the keyboard with the coolest name EVAH.

Perhaps someday they will invent a wireless converter or something. Or maybe if someone eventually invents the perfect keyboard for moi, I'll give this one to the beautiful and witty Mrs. FAX to commemorate some very special future day. Keyboards make a very thoughtful gift.

Thanks again, everyone. Most helpful. And appreciated. (BTW, there was a molecule of rice krispy under the "g" key. Thank heavens that's over.)

Hope you like what you ended up with.

FWIW I think most mechanical keyboards are for gaming. And I think gamers want wired for improved response time.

I think.

I’m a million miles from the target market but I think that’s the case.

Or I could be all the way wrong.

I've been using this keyboard for the past year, and I've been very impressed with it. It's not a mechanical keyboard, but it feels very close, and I've been incredibly impressed with it. It's very heavy and doesn't move at all. Keys feel very crisp, without the noisy clack clack of true mechanical switches. Cheap, but great performance.
