Alright, let’s gab about these keyboard metal cases, you know, the kind that holds your clicky-clacky thingamajigs.
What are these metal cases, anyway?
Well, they’re like, uh, tough little boxes for your keyboard. You got your plastic ones and then you got these metal fellas, usually made of somethin’ called aluminum. Now, which one’s better? That depends on what you’re plannin’ on doin’ with that keyboard of yours.
- If you’re just gonna be sittin’ at your desk, typin’ away like a busy beaver, that metal one’s the ticket. It’s heavier, you see, so it don’t go skiddin’ all over the place.
- But if you’re one of them young’uns carryin’ your keyboard around like a pet chicken, then plastic’s your friend. It’s cheap and light, easy on your arms.
Why folks like that aluminum stuff
Now, let me tell ya, this aluminum, it’s somethin’ else. Tough as nails, that’s what it is. You can bang it around, spill your sweet tea on it, and it’ll just keep on tickin’. Scratches and dents? Not on this fella’s watch! That’s why they make these keyboard cases out of it, see? ‘Cause they gotta be tough enough to handle all that clickin’ and clackin’ you do.
Sounds different, you know?
And it ain’t just about how it looks and feels, mind you. That aluminum, it makes your keyboard sound different too. Plastic ones, they got this deep, kinda hollow sound. But the aluminum ones, well, they’re different. Hard to explain, but some folks like it better. And if you’re one of them picky types who likes to fiddle with every little thing, you can even mess around with the sound and make it just how you want it. That’s what them young’uns call “customizin’,” I reckon.
Plastic ain’t all bad, though
Now, don’t get me wrong, plastic ain’t all bad. Most of them keyboards you see, they’re made of somethin’ called ABS plastic. You know, the kind that gets all shiny after you use it for a while? Yeah, that’s the stuff. But there’s other kinds too, like this PBT stuff that don’t get shiny so easy. So, it really just depends on what you like.
Gamers and their quiet keyboards
And then you got them gamer kids. They’re a whole different breed, let me tell ya. They like their keyboards quiet, so they can sneak up on their enemies or somethin’. So, they usually go for the plastic ones, ’cause they don’t make as much noise.
So, which one’s for you?
Well, that’s the million-dollar question, ain’t it? It all boils down to what you need and what you like. You want somethin’ tough and sturdy for your office? Go for the metal. You want somethin’ light and cheap for carryin’ around? Go for the plastic. It’s as simple as that.
Deals and discounts
And hey, if you’re lookin’ for a good deal, there’s always them sales goin’ on. Black Friday, they call it. You can get a keyboard for as little as 22.99, they say. Or maybe you just need one of them number pads on the side? They got deals on them too. Just gotta keep your eyes peeled, that’s all.
Conclusion?
So there you have it. Metal cases, plastic cases, they both got their good points and bad points. Just gotta figure out what’s right for you. And don’t be afraid to try out different ones, see what feels good. After all, it’s your fingers that are gonna be doin’ all the work.
One more thing
And remember, don’t go spendin’ all your hard-earned money on somethin’ fancy if you don’t need it. A good ol’ keyboard, whether it’s metal or plastic, that’s all you really need to get the job done. Now go on, get back to typin’!
