Preferred Interface Devices?

@art_of_shred cheers man - I would miss the scroll wheel A LOT. May have to give it another crack though. You'd have thought someone would design a "superior" trackball by now!
-
Kensington used to make some great ones, but I haven't seen them in ages. Maybe I haven't looked hard enough. (cue a flood of links to webpages I've been too lazy to hunt down)

Corsair K70 Mechanical Keyboard with MX Cherry Red switches, and a Saitek Cyborg R.A.T. 7. @art_of_shred I just did a bit of looking, and I'm not actually seeing too many trackballs that are decent. I mean, besides the ones with the mahogany ball and such
Maybe you'd like a DVORAK Keyboard to go with that? -
@Mike-Ralston lol
how do you like the cherry red's and the RAT7? I was interested in the RAT7 for gaming but I have rather large hands, worried about pinky drag
-
@MattSpeller I'm a little disappointed in the Red's, I'll probably go Blue next time. And the R.A.T. 7 is fantastic! I've got large hands as well, and it's entirely adjustable. And if you're worried about pinky drag, you can change out the side-piece for one of the included ones, that has a shelf very akin to the one that's attached to the thumb side. Overall, a very comfortable mouse, despite looking angular, as you can adjust it to fit your hand very naturally. And the 8600 DPI sensor, Sniper Button, on the fly DPI changing, sideways scroll wheel, and fully customizable button layout, those just helped to seal the deal for me. The weight system gives you another level of customization, but the frame for the mouse itself is fairly heavy for what it is, so don't expect anything super lightweight.

@Mike-Ralston And off to purchase one! Thank you! :neckbeard:

@MattSpeller You won't regret it, haha!

I have a Tex Beetle and love it!

@lance Only issue I've found with it that I have gotten used to is the small right shift key.

@lance Looks sweet man, but I promised myself long ago - no more non-standard keyboard layouts. Goes double for laptops; give me a proper keyboard layout or give me death!

Same here, has to be a standard keyboard. Except for replacing the caps lock. Make that a Sun-style control button!!
