Thumbs up eye strain

when i recently bought a new computer
the new keyboard wasn't as easy to see
because the lettering on the keys was
not as bright

so......... i had to either shine a light
or put on some reading glasses to see....
both of which, i didn't care to do....

so knowing there was a solution....
i looked for an illuminated keyboard
and purchased a logitech

what an AMAZING difference
worth every penny....too.

What you haven't learned yet where the keys are located...typing 101! Must mean you look at your fingers when you type?

It is the screen fonts I can't see without my 2.0 reading glassing, to check the dyslexic movement of my fingers always wanting to put the "e"before "i" even when not after "c" (and a bunch of other letters too). I have my font adjusted to a reasonal size but don't want to make fonts 48!

Same here on the typing classes but the keyboards for a computer are the same configuration as the Smith-Corona manual typewriter!

Dennis: Remington type writer shown, some little company called IBM got its foundation making such devices. You also used a lot of the stuff in the bottle. No spell check and backspace self-correction back then. Make a mistake START ALL OVER AGAIN!
