Probably shocked that there was not one but two 100% keyboards!

From Left to Right:

  1. Apple Extended Keyboard 2
  2. Matias Tactile Pro 4 for Mac
  3. Keychron K8 Pro with lubed Glorious Panda switches
  4. Keychron C1 with Box Jade switches

Also, Elecom Deft Pro trackball.

I try so hard to use a TKL, and after just a few days I miss the numpad.

Always nice to see another baller. I entered the trackball world not too long ago and tried all 3 major Elecom balls and could not get used to the scroll wheel and shape, I ended up with an Orbit which I love. Either way I relate to this post and get the same looks lol.

My husband gives me that same look everytime I start working on another keyboard.

I also love track balls. I used a Logitech Marble Mouse for YEARS until I found the scroll ring on Kensington products.

I bought a ton of different balls during the pandemic. Got them all used at a decent price. I tend to rotate between them.

I prefer using a finger ball over a thumb ball.

After doing this for over a year, I REALLY don't like using a mouse any more.

That's what happens when you don't have enough variety! My wife did this to me before so I bought a 40%, an Ortho, an 1800-layout and then asked her to make me a sleeve to carry my keyboards...

I recently fell into this hobby and bought a couple broken keyboards for dirt cheap that I’m gonna gut and hand wire if the PCB’s are the issue. Right now my wife thinks it’s neat/interesting, but I know that sooner or later I’ll be getting that same look.

Next time put up a line transparent switches. On a lubing station.
