keyboard pro-tip: if you spill a thing in your keyboard you can use rubbing alcohol (91-99%) to displcae remaining water and clean the contacts before letting it all dry out.

i'm currently using some rosewill branded thing from newegg with cherry mx browns

it has a key combo for turning off the start button, so it might suit your needs

rosewill is their house brand.

their stuff is actually pretty good. they're trying to expand to other retailers iir.

Why does Rosewill make such odd stuff like Rice Cookers and blankets and things?

they probably design some of their products and license others as generic designs that they then brand

i looked up one of the rice cookers and it definitely looks like the sort of thing you'd find in an asian maret with some random no-name brand

also if you want to buy a rice cooker look into the zojirushi line. those cookers are, as the japanese say, "soy excellento"

moved back to an open office space, coworkers vetoed the model m after 35 minutes and it has received an official eviction notice

at least i got bribed to ease the pain:



reqs:
- must be fairly silent
- vintage preferred, modern tolerated
- backlit not desired
- tenkey critical
- ps/2 preferred
- winkey optional, but appreciated

something with browns or clears should fit the bill nicely

build a sound-dampening shell that sites on top of the keyboard with holes cut out for your arms
