Thanks, though I'm not French.

It's Wakefield City's coat of arms.

In other news: "Yak" would have to be one of the most amusing words ever.

If it weren't for the desires of my heart to have a nice wireless, natural keyboard, with a good number of optional functions I'd have the original still. I do my fair share of coding and typing on my site Archmaille.com but I don't know. I usually like to buy higher quality keyboards (not that that matters a whole lot) and don't usually keep open drinks around my computer.

On my primary machine I have a nice wireless logitech from about 3-4 years ago now. I've never needed to replace the batteries - I hate to think how many characters I've whacked out on it.

Wireless is nice Wink

I think I'll go with a new logitech. As for a mouse, I had a logitech wireless mouse (purchased circa same time as keyboard) and it died after like 6 months - came back from a weeks holiday and it just DIDNT WORK. Now I love my intellimouse. I hate the new MS mouse though, what is it again? The "Starck" or something? Looks like a friggin' hockey puck or something :/.

LOL, if MS Hardware is anything like their software, I generally dont trust it(altho I do have a USB Intellimouse Optical - 5 button - lying around in case one of the mice I do have die (albeit It'd never be hooked upto my Linux machine - M$ free zone that is))
