Looking for a good non-Logitech keyboard

I just wish keyboards would go back to having an oversized enter-key like they used to when the IBM Selectric roamed the Earth.

Sounds like a good Steampunk project for someone!

^There are some amazing Steampunk themed hardware projects out there. A quick Google will spot you a dozen or more. Mahogany and teakwood cabinets, brass appointments, old fashioned round plunger-type typewriter keys...

Some very creative people have way too much time on their hands. ;D

I think I got mine for about $60 on sale, plus I had a gift card which brought the price down to something really nice, like $30. But still. I need a new keyboard now, and they're $100 now.

Do what I do. I track the prices at Amazon for certain items that I may buy repeatedly - like my K800! - and buy one when it is on sale, or at least priced significantly lower than usual. I just purchased a spare in March for $70. It is still in the box but at least it is there for when I need it. I also have a few new mice hanging around for when my current one bites the dust.

Innuendo:
I'd be very leary of stocking up on K800s as the first one I bought was defective out of the box. It was a weird defect with the sensor that causes the backlight to light up when your hands get near. The defect manifested itself if you would hover your hand a couple millimeters of the Inverted-T cursor keys and moved your hand forward and back. The active window on your screen would scroll downward.
Second unit worked perfect....and passed every n-key rollover test I could find on the internet. I've heard some units don't, though.
Deozaan:
What is an Inverted-T cursor key? :huh:
