Spilt a cup of tea on my keyboard...

need a new one

Any reccomendations? I mainly use the PC for playing games, so something with tiny keys = no-no.

I'm also heavy handed (hence the spilling of the drink) so it can't be flimsy... I can break military spec gear

i was going to say whats the price range... but obviously if your spilling tea on them it wont be a lot

lol

Logitech do one for about a fiver

Might buy a couple.

I washed my old one under the tap

and got all the tea out, i'll just wait for it to dry out. In the meantime I'm using a REALLY bad 1990's IBM clunky keyboard

;(

If your a bit heavy handed, in the long term I would scour boot fairs for an old Dell or IBM keyboard.

They were built like bricks and were really meant to last.

Typing away on an ancient Dell one here that cost 50p from a boot fair.

Wireless Logitech combos are waterproof

Mm I have one of those IBM keyboards - really clicky keys, really hate them

I think I'll just get a cheap £10 logitech and hope for the best. I left my old to dry overnight and it still doesn't work.

Ho hum.
