The New Toy

I went and finally splurged on a nice kyboard and mouse, because my old keyboard was uncomfortable and wonky, and my mouse was dieing. A got a Logitech Cordless MX Duo, which is a rather nice piece of work. Finally, I have a nice flat keyboard to dvorakise, but it wasn’t quite that simple.

The f and j keys have keyholes that are at a 90° angle in relation to the rest of the key holes, where the keys sit in. So I currently have my j, f, u and h keys all sideways. They still fit, and I guess having h and u sideways kinda compensates for the lack of little lump at the bottom of the key. But it’s a helluva lot better than the old one.

Using the mouse feels like I’m trying to fly a plane... very large and lots of buttons. I swear it has it’s own self destruct sequence... ;)
