Computer Supplies - Keyboards & Mice

Anyone who has been using a computer for years and uses one all day every day can likely tell you how much if a difference there is between a 'stock' keyboard and mouse and even slightly-upgrade models that are designed for speed, comfort, and longer life. Whether you are sick of an aging, clunky keyboard at home or you are a business owner looking to purchase peripherals like keyboards and mice for your employees' computers, we've got you covered with keyboards and mice in all shapes, sizes, and configurations. Quality peripherals will last longer, and increase productivity as they reduce latency, typing and mousing mistakes, and generally make working on a computer more enjoyable.

The first thing to consider is what kind of connection you want in a keyboard or mouse. You can go with the traditional and still-used PS2 connection, which virtually all desktop computers still support. The advantage here is that you never have to worry about compatibility when moving the peripherals from one computer to another; the PS2 connection will always be present. Alternatively, you can go with USB connections, which are almost always supported by desktop PCs and Macs and, more importantly, also present on laptop computers as well. This way, you won't have to worry about finding a specific mouse if you need to bring one with you and your laptop. Finally, you can go with a wireless connection via a USB or PS2 receiver/transmitter. Wireless / cordless mice are nice for desk configurations where space is at a premium and a corded solution is impractical. However, you must be careful if you are going to have several computers near each other with all of them using a cordless / wireless solution, because sometimes cross interference can occur.

One advantage that getting new mice and keyboards can offer is the ability to have extra, programmable buttons that can help you complete tasks more quickly. Take this cordless mouse by Fellowes, which has advanced optical technology, and five programmable buttons using the Fellowes mouse software. Solutions like this one can help you by allowing you to "macro" common tasks via the programmable buttons. The same goes for this optical keyboard/mouse combo which has 18 multimedia function keys to give you complete control straight from your keyboard.
