Have You Considered a Cordless Keyboard & Mouse?
With the new wave of wireless fanaticism going around, there is now widespread availability of cordless/wireless anything.
At home I prefer wireless:
- Wireless internet connections are nice.
- TV remotes (although they’ve been wireless for a while) are nice.
- The Xbox 360 controller is wireless, that is very nice.
- Keyboard and mouse are now wireless, it is nice.
Also, along with the use of mouse and keyboard as wireless units, there is also Bluetooth capability on the computer.
Less wire means less clutter
Wireless is great for one reason:
- There are no shackles connecting your electronic stuff to your other electronic stuff. Less clutter.
The fewer cables dropping behind your desk and getting tangled up with each other, the better. If you never have to trip on another PS2 controller cable again, and never have to yank your PS2 off the TV stand an onto the living room floor again, you may want to consider wireless controllers.
The new wave of game consoles has gotten it right.
Back the cordless mouse and keyboard idea
If you were outfitted with a cordless mouse and keyboard combo, you could put the keyboard on your lap and lean back while you type, without having the cable stretched out to it’s maximum stretching capacity. You could also move the mouse freely among your desk, without getting it’s cable tangled causing your mouse restricted movement until you give the cable a yank.
This cordless stuff doesn’t cost too much much more over it’s corded brethren. I picked up a nice set of keyboard/mouse, cordless, for around $50. I coulda found a better deal if I had shopped around, but that is about the going price for a decent new set.
Go get cordless, it’s nice, and will make your gadget use that much more enjoyable.
