Hands-on testing and teardowns of switches, keyboards, 3D printers, and other nerdy stuff.
I’ve always had a bit of a love-hate relationship with trackballs; I started with a Kensington, which is probably the worst peripheral I’ve ever owned, and eventually settled on an Elecom Deft. But when I saw the…
