Suggestions for a new keyboard
Thinking about buying a good one at best buy. Don't want to spend too much money on a keyboard. I want to pay 20-30 bucks, yeah Im cheap and I know you get what you pay for. Just wondering what keyboards all of you use and if you would recommend them. My headset is also broken a little so I may be buying a new one of those as well.

Re: Suggestions for a new keyboard
i use one that came with my second computer like 4 years ago and it still works...i hate it but it puts up with my abuse pretty well...i want a new one too though... as to head set i use headphones and a clip on mic for now
imagine yourself as a T-rex in a room full of T-ball poles and large soapy bubbles. Your stubby arms would render the pleasure-power of this room woefully out of reach.

Most keyboards are unnecessary, unless you play WoW. Just go to Best Buy and pretend to type on a bunch and pick one you like.

go to Staples and buy the cheapest, about $10, keyboard you can find. That's what I did and its great.

Re: Suggestions for a new keyboard
I have a Microsoft Wireless Comfort Keyboard 4000 and a Microsoft Wireless Mouse 5000 and I love both of them. The batteries last for a long time (it is a pain when they die mid-game) but other than that everything works pretty well.
That said, the only reason I got a new keyboard was because I found this set for really cheap. I used a cheap keyboard and mouse for a long time and they worked fine.

Re: Suggestions for a new keyboard
been using a logitech media elite keyboard for about two years now. i like it. my pc doubles as my stereo so i wanted the additional media controls. the nice added bonus was that many of the extra keys were auto-recognized by my desktop ubuntu install by ALSA.
i have noticed that you do have to turn it upside down and clean it out every once and awhile, or the keys start to stick a bit more that previous keyboards ive had.

Re: Suggestions for a new keyboard
I had to get a new one because I got mad at WoW and knocked over my Cheerwine onto my keyboard. As a result of knocking over my Cheerwine I proceeded to pick up my keyboard and beat it over the side of the desk. I was having a bad day.
My setences looked like this:
"mykeyoardisroke"
which meant
my keyboard is broken

Re: Suggestions for a new keyboard
I'd get the dynax/bestbuy/second one for two reasons
1.its cheaper
2.who needs a wireless keyboard? gunna play tf2 while sitting in another room not paying any attention to the game at all? also wireless means batteries and batteries you have to buy unless you can find a rechargeable battery pack or something

Re: Suggestions for a new keyboard
I'd go for the second one as well, just because I like the way it looks.
