Caring Keyboard

| No Comments

Today I went to Flickr website, surf into Flickr groups: Deaf. There are seven members (including me two times) in Deaf Flickr group. I went to every members pages and saw every pictures. Also there's something I would like to show you I found via here:

The picture looks cute! The cat, Lulu is laying on Apple 15 inch Powerbook G4 and watching the monitor. How charming! Also, I knew quickly something in my mind that something is wrong with the picture, can you figure it out?

Short answer: Powerbook keyboard could become problem in long term while it's not caring.

However, let me tell you a story about my history of keyboard: I am typing on my very keyboard (I do not know what the brand name of keyboard is: I do believe its third party. I have been using this since 1998, one time it was spilled over Mountain Dew pop can during my first year at RIT in 2000. I was pissed off about that and cleaned the keyboard outside. During the summer 2002 that time I found that there are something distrusting inside between the button keys, so I decided to take all off the keys (including num keys) and it was totally distrusting that I can see: lots of hair, crumbs and dust. I cleaned by using Q-Tip and alcoholic to clean it all white. (You might see the clean on left QWERTY keys and non-clean on right num keys.)

Now Forward to today and I now have Powerbook G4. I remember during my college times in RIT, my friend and I discussed about security and caring the Powerbook G4 keeps like new and longevity, he showed me the neat item: iSkin ProTouch PB. I tried this, and surprising, it feels different and somewhat comfortable by using this iSkin item on PowerBook. I ordered this for $19.99 last December 2004, and I never had problems by typing on QWERTY keys on Powerbook G4 today. I'm very happy with this for caring Powerbook.

It's good as it gets. Now, my PC keyboard is almost 8 seven years old, and should I have time to clean it again inside keyboard? Argh, no way! I'm going to retire this for good sometime this year or next year, and forwarding to purchase wireless keyboard because I love my most comfortable Wireless Intellimouse Explorer since x-mas 2003.
