Your mouse and keyboard

Das Keyboard (non-S), though I also have G80 MX clears (with my sister atm), and a Unicomp Spacesaver (being cleaned). I've tried the browns, still prefer the crisper tactility of the blues on the das, but the lower noise level would suit workplaces more (if co-workers don't mind the residual thock-thock).

As for mouse, the freescroll functionality stopped working on my MX Revolution, so I switched to a RAT 7. Neither mouse is perfect; I have quite a few complaints about both actually. But now that I've used them I no longer wish to switch to a mouse that doesn't have both thumb buttons and thumb wheel.

I will keep on using the Microsoft explorer type mice.  That sloped mouse design eliminated carpal tunnel type stress in my wrist and lower forearm.  That was what that design was for, but due to lawsuit potential, Microsoft cannot advertise the mouse as either reducing the chance or NOT reducing the chance.  Evidently, even saying it has no effect makes someone sue-able in the mysterious world of medical lawsuits.

Keyboard: Noppoo Mini Choc with MX Reds and Topre Realforce 103UB
Mouse: Logitech G100, Zowie EC2, Razer Deathadder 3G, Razer Mamba 4G, and Minoix Naos 5000.

I only use the G100 and EC2 because I'm liking claw grip over palm at the moment.  But I'm wanting to get another Deathadder because of it's flawless sensor and mine is in pretty shit condition (switches are horrible, scroll encoder has gone to shit, and rubber coating is gone in common places).  The other two I never use and I'm probably going to sell them.

The Realforce obviously feels nicer to type on, but I type faster on the Noppoo mini due to the MX Reds.  The tenkeyless layout let's me have my arms closer together rather than really far apart since I use a 17" mousepad.

Razer DeathAdder (the first edition), Steelpad 5L and an old keyboard.
I love the infrared sensor on DeathAdder. When this one dies I'm getting another one.  ;D

Das Keyboard sounds overpriced but good. Are the keys invidually wired?

xShadow:
I've gone through quite a few keyboards and mice. Well, to be more accurate, I've been using this mouse for quite a while now... but I've had plenty before it.


This is what I've settled on currently.
Keyboard: Sidewinder X4
Mouse: Logitech MX 518

The keyboard was on sale for 30 bucks, as I mentioned in my other topic.  The mouse, I actually bought at B&H Audio/Video a long while ago; the price was better than the price at Newegg.

The MX518, I've been quite satisfied with. It's definitely a good mouse. The only thing that annoys me is the cord. This was obviously unavoidable, but I'm starting to dislike cords on mice quite a bit. Mainly an issue because it always feels like it puts in a little resistance into every action, and positioning the cord in a way such that it doesn't impede motion in the slightest is difficult. I also might need to replace the bottom pads some time, though; wearing off.

The keyboard, I'm still getting used to. The only thing I dislike is that the Intellitype software pretty much makes it so that the media keys are incompatible with Mediamonkey unless you do some silly, roundabout procedures. Other than that, it was a good buy.
