[AusNOG] Keyboards...

[Thomas Jackson]

Another recommendation for the Das Keyboard range – I’ve got a few of the older models at home and work (with the Brown switches, the Blue ones are too loud for my liking, and I prefer the feel of the Brown as well) which have lasted several years (the oldest would have to be at least 5 years old now) and are fantastic to use.

 

A bit pricier than the bargain basement cheapie, but well worth the investment, particularly with how much time everyone on this list would spend at a keyboard!

I bought one of these a couple of months ago:

Can't recommend it enough - however it might be an issue if you work in a super quiet office, as it's mechanical.

Hi List,

 Heading a bit off topic here, but still kind of loosely maybe relevant....

 Looking for a new day to day keyboard - i seem to be ploughing through the cheapies, and its hard to find one with buttons in a decent configuration (i.e. function buttons etc sometimes weird shapes or media controls are default and have to hit Fn to get the F key).

 Most upper end keyboards seem to be geared towards gaming, but im obviously looking for business needs. 

 Whats a good keyboard that you all use day in day out that wont wear out so easily and has good button sizes and placement for hitting the ever important button combos we use often?

Thanks,
Joe
