Who has tried that "Easy-Eye" keyboard?

11 years ago

The one with the big yellow letters on the keys.

I found it today at the Family Dollar store for $15

I didn't buy it but I may depending on the reviews here.

I have one and love it. and it is easy to install. I paid 14.95 at WM.

Keys are nice and big and the letters huge and easy to see.

Are the keys harder to hit then a regular keyboard?
I had bought one at the computer store and found letters were missing on my page due to not enough pressure.

Julia, when I called to find out what was going on they never offered to check an IP address. I'll call them tomorrow to see if it is something they can do. I never did hear that story about the check shredding! Geez, how stupid can they be? You probably shouldn't mention the name on here, but I certainly hope it at least wasn't one of the major banks. I'm still up in the air about paypal. Not from this transacion, but other stuff I have heard. Your log on ID is your email address, which gets people half way there. My sis-in-law got her hotmail account taken from her by an identity thief. The thief hacked into a site she bought some cosmetics from. He was then able to block her out of it by changing her password & then went after her paypal account. She had an excellent credit card company tagged to it & instantly knew something was up & called her. She said the credit card company AND paypal knew what was going on before she did. A little safe haven, but if you have your checking account attached, not sure if they would be able to detect it as quickly. I know this situation is pretty unique & doesn't happen often but it sure makes reality set in. The key is having rock solid passwords that no one can figure out.

Problem with Hibernation & Keyboard

I used to have that happen it would not recognize it till I unplugged then re-plugged the keyboard then it would find it and work, luckily I have a KVM switch on my desktop so it was easy to get to do do this, I love a wireless mouse but just can not get a good wireless keyboard that I find worth the effort so I use a wired one with virtually no problems, I mean it is on my desktop just how far will I be going with it anyway. Also make sure the receiver is not blocked or out of line from the unit.

Off Topic: Who Has A Laptop They Absolutely Love?
Q
Comments (48)
Those of you wanting a laptop, definitely read the post Have you switched from a PC to a laptop? lots of good points in it, not only Windows computers but Mac's as well. My pain management doc has a Sony Vaio that he loves as well as 2 Mac laptops; he's mentioned one other but can't justify buying another. Wish I could remember what brand it was. Before buying be sure to research. As johnmari says about her Dell experience, unfortunately, that's what most people say. They also string you along until your 30 days are up to return it, then end up sending you a similar system, usually minus premium software you've paid for; and it's a refurbished machine. I have Windows and a Mac.. While I've been using the Mac mini, Windows is just so much easier and once I get the Windows machine finished (still not done building/adding parts) I will switch to that full time. Not sure if I posted in the other thread about our Compaq laptop, I bought it for my son when he graduated in 2003, that thing was a floor model and is still running. We blew a drive out in an airport (got hit against something) but installing the new drive was painless. I would buy one again, depending on how much they are compared to a Sony. I love the look of the Sony screens; we own 3 monitors with the XBrite technology..

Eeew. You can have your thrills, but the disgusting truth is "IT'S PEOPLE!!!" Thanks for identifying the product. I know gamers who do the can't move eyes to eat zombie stare. They usually have some peripheral actual human beings who shove one handed food at them. Coders are more likely to get up to stretch, go to the bathroom and grab something to eat. They have chicklet mats that cover keyboards so you can still use them which help with the the Rule of NRITK (no ramen in the keyboard), sometimes spelled NRIK, pronounced "nerk" or by some purists "nert'k". A pasty sad lot, the bunch of them. I can imagine that they like to pretend their meal replacement goo really is people. :(

I never buy tv offers, the shipping is probably another $20 then it take 8 weeks to get it!

BTW, don't buy that green fry pan (orgreenic), its no better then other teflon you can buy.

Well I see them at another site for 2 for $12.99 I would definitely check shipping charges. It appears that there's a lot of similar ones out there so my guess is there will be different quality of products.

My husband bought two at Wal-Mart and that very day I spilled water on my keyboard so he switched mine out...I love it...way easier and a lighter touch than my old one.

I found a site that sold stickers that go on your regular keyboard. They were under $3 and work great for me to see better, particularly at night. Much easier than a whole new keyboard.

All of those "we'll double the offer" seem to include the caveat, you just pay shipping and handling and usually it's almost as much as or even more than the offered price. 2 keyboards and 2 mice upward of $40 is not a very good deal unless they're unusual equipment and I doubt the quality is great. It usually isn't.

I usually like to feel a keyboard before I buy it when possible to see how the touch and noise are. They vary a lot. I usually even like to get a feel of the mouse too so I usually buy from a retail store.

And I touch-type so the size of the printing is of little value to me. And I'd find the glow in the dark version annoying!
