  • New keyboard

    From Sean Dennis@618:618/1 to All on Wed Sep 24 17:13:54 2025
    Hello, All!

    I bought a new keyboard for the BBS and I wanted to recommend it to you all. It's a Cherry Stream compact keyboard (no ten-key pad). Well-built and is very quiet. Good keythrow and is not super tiny.

    I like it so much I'm going to get one for my personal computer too. USD$24 before tax.

    Hello August,

    I don't need one for the BBS. I have limited space for a keyboard.

    Now for my personal box, maybe, but this keyboard will work perfectly for me.

    I really like this keyboard.

    The SPOCK (Society for the Prevention OF Cruelty to Keyboards), has
    me on their 10 most wanted list. <G>

    I've literally typed the letters off the keys with banging them (maybe
    I should rephrase that <G>), but being a BBS Sysop since 1990, I've
    become a touch typist, and I never took a typing course.
