Christian recommended I get a new, better keyboard a long time ago. I used one he had at his apartment in Tempe every time I was there, but for some reason, never thought it would be a good idea to get one. Well, a couple of weeks, I broke down and had him buy me one for $70 after having spent the last couple of decades using keyboards that cost in the range of $20. The keyboard he picked out for me arrived today and there is truly a world of difference for the better. The keys have a profoundly better action and the whole thing just seems more solid. The keys are back lit, it sits at the right angle. I like it a lot. Additionally, it came just in time for me to work on my journal article.
