cheap mechanical keyboard Surmen GT68

IIRC, links Amazon and ebay are considered spam, but you can just search for it. $29 in the US for ugly colors.

It's a wireless mechanical keyboard with 3 bluetooth connections, one dongle wifi, and 1 usb connection. Works with android devices and computers. Has the rgb leds, which are cool for about 10 minutes but easy to turn off.

I'm not a keyboard geek at all, but it seems find fine to type on to me. Nicer than most laptops I've used.

Wonder why they think the escape key is so important to color it?

Do people really have a hard time finding it! :lol: :roll:

I have not used the escape key today.
Maybe I do not understand how to correctly use a keyboard.

The space key is so small (it is only 1/2 of the bottom row of keys), I can understand that one needing to be a different color. :lol: :D

The things you do not tell us, are usually the clue to fixing the problem.
When I was a kid, I wanted to be older.
This is not what I expected :o

Apparently the set of keys with different colors is a thing.

There are 2 more sets of those keys, one the regular dark grayish blue and another multicolor.
