alt Hacker NewsA lot of things were better in that era. Keyboards for instance. All keyboards were nice, and some companies are charging a lot of money just to give us back what we once had!
The same goes for milk, cheese, fish cans, cars, chocolate, movies, and clothes. And books.
That's true. However, I got some nice keyboard(s) for myself, and I don't look back much now. Not all are mechanical, but most are.
I'm happy to report that there is still good milk and cheese out there. Fish is a hit and miss. Belgians still make incredible chocolate, but cars, movies and books have gone downhill.
However, while I'm a pen and paper guy heavily, I love my e-reader.
P.S.: Also, trackballs are much better for many tasks than mice. I'm happy they still make them, and make them well.
