my keyboard must-haves<\/s> non-negotiables (why yes! I have watched The Bear<\/a>! <\/span>

… and I highly recommend it, as long as you don’t mind a lot of yelling and swearing. a must-wach for food likers and cooks and wannabe cooks.<\/div>\n\n\n\n

75% layout leaves out too many important keys. no PRNT-SCRN (fatal!), INS (makes paste by SHIFT-INS impossible), no END,
maybe try 95% next time?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

dedicated INS and PRT SCRN in the proper place<\/p>\n\n\n\n

wired – keyboard too important for pc that I don’t trust, with good rreason, wireless keyboards. might try again in 5 years maybe wireless keyboards will nbe tolerable then<\/p>\n\n\n\n

media contros, at least mute\/up\/down volume – must be able to kill volume out of pc no matter what is playing; must be a dedicated key, prereably above the right side (since trackball is on right side, my hand it almost always at right side)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

flattish keykaps – i want keycaps that don’t have a pronouced “corner”; <\/p>\n\n\n\n

noisy af – i want my old Northgate Omnikey 102, with og mechanical switchers. or an original ibm <\/p>\n\n\n\n

well, until I looked up ebay stock<\/a>… ibm keyboards<\/a>…<\/p>\n\n\n\n
