Eclipse is starting up... I'm notoriously hard on my laptop
keyboards. In the past 3 years, I've gone through no less that 6
keyboards. In my own defense, I believe that Dell put some really
crappy keyboards in the Latitude CPxJ. In Dell's defense, I know I'm
a much more ruthless typer than most.
I think I'm getting ready to go through another one. I'm starting
to have problems with the left control and alt keys. The special 'Fn'
key has been dead for a while. Now, it looks as though the rest of
the lower left contingent is getting ready to give up the ghost.
The problems with my keys made me actually look at my keyboard.
It's funny; I can see where I've worn the coating off certain keys to
the point that they are shiny. Gives me some insight as to which keys
I'm abusing the hardest. Looks like for me it's a, s, d, f, e, r, t,
x, c, y, u, i, o, j, m, n, and the right side of the space bar.
Interestingingly enough backspace and enter seem to be fairing well.
Perhaps it's because the pinky is weaker and not capable of doling out
premium punishment.
Well, it looks like Eclipse is back up now... off to beat more of
the fuzz off my keys.
