Je m'interesse aussi. je suis curieux de savoir si c'est un scammer ou non. Versaille n'est pas si loin pour moi, mais je n'ai pas confiance en mon français oral pour faire telle type de conversation.

Adaephon, thank you for your detailed explanation of your experience with the M570. Today I left the choice up to my employer. As I would be using this for work, it made sense to leave the choice up to them to decide what they wanted to buy. As expected they have chosen the cheapest of the two, the ...

Sounds good, but expensive! And seeing the picture even colourful colour schemes seem to be possible. The case looks a bit weird and bulky. That are my thoughts exactly. Looks heavy and big, and I don't know if I really like the design. Such a keyboard you need to see and try out before deciding to...

On a search for my first trackball

I want to buy my first trackball, but I need some advice on which model. I tried the Logitech Trackman Wheel for some hours and found it comfortable. However Logitech doesn't offer this model anymore, so I was wondering if the M570 is any good, as I like the thumb action. As I switched my mouse from...

Well thank you for that link to the article about blue light and its effects on the metabolism. I found this one about the dark side of blue light.
But how did you like it as a mouse bungee? I have never used one and I wanted to know if such a device is an added value to your mouse usage.

Re: Custom Mechanical Keyboard Build

Very nice build log, I like the idea of using MDF as a cheap solution. MDF has good compression properties and I like the looks of it (and if you don't you can just paint it).
Thank you for pointing to the sources you used, it makes it easier for those who want to attempt the same.

They also have a 60% keyboard available, with the option for MX clears. That could also be a viable option for an UK based person (with time and/or money to spend)

... Correct :) Comes to about £79 + shipping. Bit of a wait at the moment though. https://ctrlalt.io/store/items/jd40 6-10 weeks seems acceptable to me, considering I am waiting for my Leopold FC660M (with Clears, to stay kinda on topic) from MassDrop and will have to wait for the Infinity as well....

I switch between my left and right hand regularly because my right wrist hurts a lot, but I don't switch buttons (symmetrical mouse). I have switched my pointers to left-handed pointers. It server as a reminder to switch regularly.
