New ISP found, Installation happens Monday around 10. Decent monthly bandwidth, decent price. Customer service with real people not press 1.3, 7, and then be put on hold, to be disconnected 20 minutes later to start over. And then when you talk to a person you need an interpreter to understand them. GOODBYE MA BELL. Be back Monday, this dial up sucks........

Back on dial up again . Fight with ISP. Raised rates reduced Bandwidth usage. Quit them and am looking at other ISP providers. Until then on dial up.

Plus I wanted media controls and mute buttons independent from a function key combination like on my laptop's keyboard.

Yes, but this keyboard was available in Best Buy and I didn't feel like either paying for shipping or waiting up to 2 weeks for it to arrive. :p
- Kherr
Thu May 16, 2013 9:35 pm
A good keyboard and an excellent upgrade from what you were using. Did you look at a Filco?

I just bought me the Logitech G710+ mechanical keyboard! It's got Cherry MX Brown switches, and it's beautiful!

I was just terminated from my job at ITT Technical Institution for being "unprofessional." I have no clue why because they wouldn't give me any specifics. Oh well, I only had another four weeks left in that job anyway (as I graduate in 4 weeks).
