Just one more stroke

Via Slashdot : " A test carried out by Pegasus Lab on account for Swedish magazine PC For Alla showed that a normal PC keyboard was infected by more bacteria than a normal toilet seat. More specific it contained 33000 bacteria per square centimeter, compared to 130 on a ordinary toilet seat. The tests also showed occurrence of up to 3100 fungi per square centimeter."

Think about it, you nasty rascals, every time you sneeze, cough or scratch yourself, your nasty, grubby little fingers are headed back to the keyboard without a proper cleaning.

Just think about the IT Guy at your place of work. He's alone. In his office, that was once a broom closet. Eating Cheetos. Downloading gigs, upon gigs of porn. Ever wonder why he's always flustered when you call?

Then there's you mister flush and run. Sure you don't pee or crap on your hands. But think about all those people that do and then hit the flusher the same as you. Then you head, from the head, to your office, where you once again happily bang away on your ebola ridden, herpisyphamillia infected keyboard.

Me, I'm trashing my keyboard, which notably when licked tastes like a Bojangles sausage biscuit, for a model that will prevent the hunt and peckers that haunt these hallowed halls from ever using my computer again. I'm going with a Das Keyboard, it's 100% blank (zero, zip, zilch, written the keys). Take a gander it's a thing of beauty.

Ew. That is just gross. Now I need latex gloves or something. Oh wait. It's my own germs. That's ok then.

That keyboard would frustrate me to no end.
