Jeramie Posted May 18, 2007 Report Share Posted May 18, 2007 My work requires quite a bit of typing. Ive noticed over the years that I literally wear a keyboard and mouse thin. Ive had a brand new keyboard and mouse for roughly 12-15 months. Certain Keys, namely home row, and especially the space bar are wore slick. All keys have a texture to them. Mine are so slick they shine, literally. My mouse is the same way. Both buttons have huge slick spots from my clicking and the outline of my hand is wore completely thorough the paint! You can literally turn my mouse sideways to light and see exactly how I hold my hand. All of the texture where my hand lays is gone.... I have no idea why that is. Anyone else see this? My wife tells me that I have rough hands all the time so it may just be me but Im curious..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeramie Posted May 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2007 those weekly manicures aren't working, eh? Ive been opting out of the handwax. Perhaps I should give that a try..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bachflock Posted May 21, 2007 Report Share Posted May 21, 2007 LOL!!! I spend 12 hours a day at work on a keyboard and mouse and know exactly what you mean. I hadn't thought of it as a problem before!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhunt Posted May 22, 2007 Report Share Posted May 22, 2007 Maybe it is job stress related Jeramie Got kind of big fingers and rough skin on my hands here, and have not had any troubles with wearing out keyboards or mice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
