my my, new-fangled technology simply do not last.

the lovely flat keyboard that i acquired one year ago expired today in the most ungraceful manner.

the letter 'T', when depressed, showed 'TV', and 'Y' yielded 'YM'. BACKSPACE became ENTER and CAPSLOCK became X (with and without Caps).

, had to be accompanied by [ and the two-timing [ just had to hook up with \.

it was very disturbing i tell you.

and it didn't help at all that i had to enter a password before i could access windows.

so right now i have reverted back to the age-old common whitish keyboard.

a year ago, i could type better with this keyboard. now i wish i had the other one.

my wrists are already tired.
