RE: TOOLS: quiet keyboard

[jbfoster <jb -dot- foster -at- shaw -dot- ca>]

Those 'Crystal' keyboards are nice ...

I had the chance to try one out, at the local computer store, and was
worried the keys would be too cramped ... nothing like I thought a small
sized keyboard would be! But at over $100 CDN, it was a bit pricey. I
believe that the price has come down - like everything computer-related.
Still, no rush 'here' to go out and buy one. I remember the last nifty
keyboard I bought ($$$). That was the Microsoft Ergonomic keyboard ...
anyone remember the one that had the keys rising up towards the middle of
the keyboard ... never liked it (though still have it) ... so I'm in no rush
to go and buy another expensive keyboard. Especially, if it might end up a
neglected novelty.
