I felt very depressed when my first keyboard failed - the rubber shocks 
got tired and started to tear. It served me for more than 10 years in 
everything from gaming to writing university reports to programming 
(pounding, dropping and spilling/sugaring included). And it was an old 
one - without all those annoying win-keys and stuff. Never got another 
one that would last at least a year. One of the recent ones died taking 
with it a USB port on the mobo (or maybe it was vice-versa, I don't know).
