I went to Best Buy and stumbled upon Apple keyboards and mice. There are some cool looking Apple keyboards, but no one has commented on their great mice. The MacBook keyboard is pretty good. And the price seemed in line with low level Gamer components. So, $50 later I have an actual Apple keyboard. It is tiny. The smallest full size keyboard I’ve ever seen. There is a priceless feature; 2 USB ports on the wings.
Notice that the keys are very similar to the MacBook. Low, wide, quiet, well spaced keys with little “flair”. Very little extra writing, lights, etc. In fact the only light is the a little pinprick when the Caps Lock is done. The amazing thing is the size. This keyboard would easily fit in the laptop bag.
I’m not especially fond of tiny keyboards or the light touch. My original training was in typewriters. The old IBM Selectric was a huge humming tank with the heart of a whirling dervisher. My favorite keyboard was a clickey Keytronic with a switch for XT and AT operation. I’ll give anything a try for a while. Anyway, had to type something with it before going back to setting up Vista.
