I still use my two microsoft natural keyboards, circa mid 90s, and have popped off the keys as well to clean. It also requires a round to USB adapter. My wife's current backlit with changing color leds looks the best though. . . but i hate straight keyboards, so uncomfortable . . .

In 1989, an mba classmate wanted a new home pc for class, so we went to an IBM store and guys in suits tried to sell us computers, and i was like "its an f* pc, why the suits?" of course, I had a mac since 1981 so I wasn't into suits, we found a custom builder and had his built.

kind of shows you why I never made it very far in the corporate world, don't like suits and pompous circumstances
