Old typewriter keys are used in all sorts of recycled products. Most are used to make things like necklaces and cuff links, but there’s also the geeky trend of making steampunk keyboards. We have to admit, it’d look a little strange to be using a shiny new wireless Logitech mouse with an old-timey looking keyboard. The solution comes via Aaron Ristau, an artist from Loveland, Colo.
Ristau creates wireless computer mice that take on the steampunk look with two old-fashioned typewriter keys taking the place of the normal left and right buttons. According to his website, Ristau focuses on art that “blends nostalgic aesthetics with modern function.” He uses a Logitech M305 wireless mouse for the bones of the creation, but unless you turn the mouse over, it looks like something from the 50s or 60s.
The mouse comes in chrome as well as various painted colors. It can even be customized to the characters of your choice. Are you a fan of the semicolon? You can have one on your mouse. Most people would opt for their first and last initials, but it’s really up to you. It runs off of an AA battery that lasts for a few months. Once it runs out, you’ll have to unscrew four tiny screws on the bottom of the mouse to switch it out.

Wireless range is a bit limited Awkward side button and scroll wheel placement Uses standard AA batteries instead of rechargeable onesReview
Anyone who’s had the displeasure of dealing with a computer-related repetitive stress injury will tell you that even the simplest of tasks (like moving a mouse around) can become excruciatingly painful. And while there are plenty of ergonomic mice on the market, they’re often expensive, oddly-shaped, or both.
Microsoft’s take on the ergonomic mouse strikes a delicate balance between usability and relief. It’s a bit taller than an average mouse, and its sloped design forces your hand into a more natural “handshake” position which works wonders to relieve inflammation of the tendons running along the underside of your wrist.

Since it’s laid out like a regular mouse, though, the learning curve is all but nonexistent. I was up and running in no time – much faster than with any of the trackballs or joystick-style ergonomic mice that I’ve tried in the past.
The two main buttons make up most of the surface on the top of the mouse, which allows you to click with your entire index or middle fingers, and a large groove on the left hand side of the mouse provides a comfortable saddle for your thumb. The scroll wheel is downright amazing in that it simply rolls back and forth with no resistance whatsoever, almost as though it’s somehow lubricated.
Wonderful though the scroll wheel may be, its actual placement makes it awkward to use as a third mouse button. I’ve historically used middle mice buttons to open new tabs in browser windows, but pressing the Microsoft mouse’s scroll wheel takes too much straining so I’ve been relegated to holding down the CTRL key on my keyboard instead. The wheel is positioned too far back on the mouse’s body to easily click downward with an index finger.
