Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
I just went through the peculiar hell of having my Ctrl key stick. I've installed my auxiliary backup keyboard, but is there any way to fix a membrane-based keyboard? I tried cleaning; taking the key out and putting it back; pushing the key many times; and elaborate swearing.
For ergonomic reasons, I prefer compact keyboards without the number pad on the right, because otherwise the angle of my hand to the mouse gives me RSI issues in my shoulder. All the ones I've tried have been at least moderately expensive and none of them has lasted very long.
That makes so much sense.

Awesomecakes!
Casio is unveiling a radical departure from its basic point-and-shoot camera roots Sunday, the $1,000 Exilim Pro EX-F1 that the company says can shoot 60 still images per second or movies at 1,200 frames per second.
Ooh. Want. To play with....
Although the resolution when doing movies at 1,200 frames per second is pretty low....

It was sometime in December, I think. It's pretty nifty.
