How old is your keyboard?

[ManIkWeet]

Hi all,

 

It just came up in me that my keyboard is really really old, it even has one of those fancy turbo buttons on it!

 

I was just wondering how old you guys' keyboards are?

Yes, those are overly used media buttons.

I had a new keyboard since this one as it was "deteriorating", a Sharkoon Skiller, that piece of junk made me mad enough to break it in many little parts... I did keep the membranes however, should I ever need a replacement one.

I only ever needed a single (!!!) replacement membrane for this keyboard, because I teared one apart when I opened the keyboard for cleaning...

About half a year, got CM Devastator kit, because my old keyboard didn't have long enough cord.

It was made in stone age.

JK. Some local keyboard for typing, and the same fukin thing for light gaming.

Hmm, 3 months or so.

My K90 was a year and a half old I think, no dead LED's, upgraded to K95 because spending money and that was like 4-5 months old, sold it, because dead LED's.

Now I have a k70 rgb so..... 2 months old this thing.

Bought my K70 half a year ago. I still consider it a worthy purchase, before i only had those cheap membrane keyboards.

I have an old membrane ps/2 IBM keyboard from around 2003/4 which I still have because it is too expensive to buy a mechanical keyboard and all of the other membrane keyboards I have obtained over the years have died.

Bout a year old now, K95 from Corsair.

I heard those are like rocks to type on, but they work!

well it still works after over 10 years, which I can not say for any other keyboard that I have tried to replace it with.

my keyboard is from the days of pentium D.... YUP!

[GoodBytes]

Mine is no more than 3 years old. I tend to change my keyboard every 3 years or so, as by that time the membrane wears out, and dries, so the response of the keys is n longer good, and it doesn't help that each key starts feeling different, making it annoying when gaming and most importantly for me, coding.

 

I have the Wired Logitech Illuminated Keyboard .

A year, K70.

[awesomes8wc3]

My current keyboard (6GV2) is about 2 years old.

My previous keyboard (Microsoft Wireless Multimedia 1.0A) lasted 9 years on my desk, I have no idea where it is now but it probably still works!

[spwath]
