Mac QWERTY Keyboard Nirvana

[MIDI Life Crisis]

During this discussion I decided to look for a new keyboard and I found one!

The Logitech k750 is a wireless, solar powered keyboard and no, you don't need the Sun to power it - just room light. Comes in a few colors but black is beautiful.

It feels fantastic with slightly indented keys that conform to our delicate little fingers nicely. It is QUIET and extremely responsive! YES! The function keys are kind of oddly wired to a laptop setup where you have to hit the fn key to get function keys, but that is easy overcome with the Logic pref panel if you don't mind it. I do mind it as it takes over my Logitech MX Revolution mouse and my Steermouse program won't function, so I don't use the Logitech software, but this has turned out to be a very good thing as I now have more options with my Quickeys assignments than before, mainly owing to my inefficient use of the shortcuts. Another story... and BTW, the MX Revolution is not compatible with the "unified" rf receiver. No big deal, IMO.

But wait, there's more, I also snagged a nifty Brother P-Touch label maker (and at half price at Office Depot on special) that plugs into the Mac and can use any font on the system. That in combination with 1/4" black labels has transformed my studio keyboard into a great custom keyboard (see below).

Just thought I'd share with you kids...

It's still going strong! The function keys may need some reassigning, however. I use quickeys for that.

Can't see images of yours - however the keyboard does look nice on the advert.

I cleaned up my website when I rebuilt it a few months ago. A lot if images I hosted got hosed. Sorry. But there's a ton of Picts elsewhere. And the small size labels fit on and around keys for customizing quickey hot keys.

I have the apple wired keyboard with number pad - but it has lots of stuff stuck on the keys for shortcuts - just wondered what others did! One thing I find is that I am always changing my shortcuts as I find different ways of doing things, so at the moment it is laminated snippets stuck on with blu-tac. Just wondered if there was a better way.....
