In Logitech I Trust

I go through quite a lot of computer parts and accessories. In the past two years or so, I have gone through two mouses and just received my third keyboard this morning. The reason for this, of course, can be due to the fact that I spend the bulk of my overall time in front of my computer. Working a full-time web designer job, a part-time freelance writing job, and running two blogs (one of which is getting better all the time thanks to the rise in visitors–Psst, that’s Woman Tribune! Yay!) can certainly take its toll on everything computer hardware-related. To say the least, I do not go easy on my computer. I expect it to work all of the time, break very infrequently, and I expect the comfort of my day sitting in front of the computer to be at a high, which includes my list of requirements in (especially) computer keyboards.

I type approximately 84 words per minute with a 4% error rate (Yes, it’s been tested.) Because of how fast I type, I require my hands to glide across my keyboard effortlessly, so you can imagine the frustration that comes with having to press down really, really hard onto a key to get it to type the letters on the screen. My first keyboard, I believe, was the first keyboard made for the computer, so the no-name company really did not grasp the concept of soft keys for their keyboards. The second keyboard I’ve had (and retired today!) was another no-name keyboard that meant well, however, it frequently spazzed out for periods of time, either typing the same letter for quite some time or not working at all. This was not a jamming of the keys or anything, it would just literally get hormonal.

This morning my new keyboard came and after using it for a little while, it is the perfect keyboard I’ve had in mind for years.

The Logitech Classic Keyboard is a no-frills keyboard; it has a great shape, it’s black and sleek looking, but most of all, the keys are so soft making for great rhythm and flow when writing and working!

When I was thinking about how wonderful it was to have a keyboard that actually felt and worked great, I had a look around my office and realized… All of the computer-related gadgets in here are Logitech!

In addition to the classic keyboard, I am also using the Logitech LX3 optical mouse, the boyfriend is using a snazzier version of my keyboard, also by Logitech, and he is also using a Logitech webcam full-time for all of his video needs, which is quite a job because he gives guitar lessons over on YouTube.

All in all, my family pretty much relies on Logitech for all of our computer accessory needs. They are great quality products, affordable, and won’t let you down!
