While in the middle of writing this afternoon, the little lights flashed off for good on my favourite Microsoft Surface Ergonomic keyboard. I’m bummed. It was a refurbished unit and had a few different problems, so I’m not surprised it has died. I’ve used the keyboard for four-plus years now — not a very long life. I enjoyed my time with it, to be sure.

Here’s a good tongue-in-cheek comment from a good friend. But seriously — perhaps it’s wiser to just post this sort of a stuff on a blog from now on. Another local Manitoban has been doing the same and I think it’s wonderful.
