One thing I have learned from living with a geek like Mr. Ken is that there is never an end to the new computer parts. I can’t complain though since I feel there is never an end to new exercise DVDs. π
Mr. Ken’s latest “toy” is a backlit keyboard! One may ask why a keyboard needs back lights, and the answer is quite simple really, “Just because.” Mr. Ken was beside himself when he saw this latest invention on Newegg. The little backlights even match Ruby’s colors! (In case you are wondering about Ruby, look at Meet Ruby.
Mr. Ken proudly informed me that he can even program the little lights to come on in different patterns. I have given up asking why one would ever want to do that . . .Although, I must admit, it is pretty cool to watch.
Here is Mr. Ken, proudly showing off his latest “toy.”
Here is a close up of said toy.
What will the geeks think of next? I shouldn’t spend too much time pondering this since I’m sure Mr. Ken will keep me informed of the latest!

I”m still loving this new keyboard! Besides the neat red LED lighting, it is a mechanical keyboard and is wonderful to type on. The keys have a nice tactile feel, much better than those inexpensive membrane keyboards that come with computers / laptops. For any techies out there, it uses Cherry MX Brown keys. I should have bought this years ago!

Well Mr. Ken,
I am sort of glad you didn’t buy this years ago because it would mean I would live as a “computer widow” for that much longer. π

Gadgets are what makes the world go around. Or at least make it cool doing so. I love the lighted computer case and late night writing would be well served by the back lit keyboard.

Hi Nancy π
I reckon Mr Ken is collecting the components required for a rock festival OR perhaps he’s building a UFO in the garden shed. It’s worth a look ! π β€

Thanks for your comment. That’s exactly what Mr. Ken says about the keys too. It has been awhile since he bought the keyboard, yet he is still talking about it! π
