The Keyboard + Mouse a Bling-Bling

Adjust text size:


Do you fancy bright, luminescent colors, and you've always looked for some computer peripheral to match your desires? Well, look no further, because Saitek has got something for you, namely the Colored Multimedia keyboard & mouse combo, something that seems
taken out of the 70's disco era and thrown in the technological turmoil of the 21'st century (although pink has always been many people's favorite color).

But what's so special about this combo? Nothing much, really, at least from the specifications' point of view. What really baffles the eye here are the bright pink and green colors, which can actually be quite disturbing, if you're not a fan of luminescent colors. However, the manufacturers say that there's more to this combo than (violently) meets the eye, since the ergonomic keyboard features additional controls for multimedia functions, and the mouse has an elliptical shape that fits any hand size.

Here are the most important specs this combo has to offer:

- 3-button mouse with 800dpi optical sensor;
- mouse features a rubberized, non slip scroll wheel;
- the keyboard sports a 104 key layout;
- tactile, responsive keys and angle tilt.

The combo is available for around 26 US dollars, which is not that much, after all, for having such an out of the ordinary control combo on your desk. In any case, if you DO decide to spend this money, be sure to have good eyes and a love for the above mentioned colors.

Thanks!
