I’m sure most of you may think you already have good keyboards, but I found some that are actually quite amazing and out of the ordinary. You may never be able to afford some of them, but they are fun to look at! Some are programmable, some you can twist and bend and one you can see in total darkness.
Here’s a list of the top 10 most expensive keyboards that I’ve found:
1. Virtual Laser Keyboard – $179.99
The Virtual Keyboard is like any other keyboard and its best feature is it can operate, in total darkness. Another cool feature is that it can fit in a small suit pocket or shirt pocket. The Virtual Laser Keyboard saves space on your desk, and can be used with Smart Phones or PDA’s.

4. Keyless Ergonomic Keyboard, OrbiTouch – $399
One might ask, why was this keyboard designed. In one Simple word, comfort. The OrbiTouch completely removes finger movements from the process of typing. So How does this odd keyboard work? OK, so the “keypad” is comprised of two domes upon which the hands are intended to rest. Each dome can slide in up to eight different directions, allowing movement of up to seven millimeters in each direction– so the movements are fairly easy to make, and don’t require a large range of motion. Keystrokes are composed of simultaneous movements of both domes in sync. For instance, moving the left dome to the left and moving the right dome to the right will create a letter ‘d’. It may take you a while to learn but also might save you in the long run!

5. Professional II, Datahand – $675.00
The Datahand was designed ground up around the human body, the hands and muscles involved in the typing process. The outcome is strange looking but it gets the job done. It’s doesn’t look like a normal keyboard, but its considered one. The Datahand is a man made machine and was designed for speed and to promote accuracy. (more…)
Anyone who owns and iPhone or iPod touch can attest to the unprecedented level of computing power contained in those devices. In fact, the small size of the powerful media player can sometimes be frustrating, especially the tiny touchscreen keyboard. OLO plans to change all that with its iPhone-laptop dock.
Simply lock the iPhone into the spot where the trackpad normally sits on most laptops, and you suddenly have access to a full blown computer, all contained inside the phone itself. (more…)
Oil immersion has long been relegated to the realm of home-built, custom made PC’s, which is a real shame because it’s so darn effective and efficient in cooling computers and keeping them silent. Typical home setups have non-conductive oil running through a pump system, often to an external heat dispersal system. Of course, this requires not only the skill to build the computer first, but being patient and smart enough to deal with the mess of oil around computer parts. Thus, only the most dedicated PC enthusiasts even bother with this.
Hardcore, a new PC manufacturing company, wants to change all that by introducing a line of computers in which all the internals, not just selected components, are completely submerged in non-conductive oil starting with the PC you see above, named the Reactor. (more…)
It’s that time of the year when Apple updates their MacBooks. They now use a new manufacturing technique that allows them to create the casing from one chunk of aluminium. The result? A slimmer, yet stronger casing profile, and better-looking laptops.
The multitouch trackpad is now made from glass, and the 13.3 inch LCD now uses an LED backlight that’s brighter and better than the previous one. (more…)
No this post isn’t talking about touchscreen mobile phones. What we are talking about is HP’s new 25.5” LCD touchscreen all-in-one PC.
Within the HP TouchSmart IQ810 lies an Intel Core 2 Duo processor, 4GBs of RAM, 500GBs of storage and an NVIDIA 9600M graphics card. It has a resolution of 1920×1200 pixels. There is also a Blu-ray drive for entertainment and those time when you just don’t want to work. (more…)

This rumor comes from multiple sources, citing that Apple retail stores have received shipping information and a 12 point price list, highlighting the new model. Former price lists only contained 8 price points. Another factor that may have influenced this decision? People sorely miss the 12 inch Macbook. A smaller addition to the current lineup would be most welcome, especially in these hard economic times. (more…)

Hitting the gaming world for about 50 bucks, the entry level Arctosa comes in either silver or black lettering with black keys.
