Hackjob

One of the most annoying parts about camera ownership is finding out that your big, fancy tele-zoom just isn't enough to reach whatever distant object or person you were hoping to shoot from the cheap seats. You ask the question; "just how much zoom can you fit onto a camera?" Nikon had an answer - and apparently, it was just "yes."

The Happy Hacking Keyboard is undoubtedly a divisive product, but its key layout was capable enough to where people were often more than willing to put up with the quirks. Now, many manufacturers have decided to produce their own riff on the same formula, but with considerable improvements at... a lower cost? PFU might want to check under their bed.

Even though I'm a PC guy, I have a strong appreciation for the Mac Pro, having cycled through many of them in the not so distant past. However, Apple recently discontinued the latest model of the tower, this time seemingly for good. I figured now was a fitting time to check one out for myself.

Here we go again.

Logitech has a very long and storied history of producing top shelf gaming mice, with the G502 lineage arguably being their most famed. Yet, that line wasn't always Logitech's flagship full-featured ergo mouse - it was actually once second tier to a mouse that was even better in a lot of ways that mattered: the G700s. Logitech forgot all about it. You shouldn't.

Ever look at your keyboard and wished that it looked it would eat your face off? No? Well, apparently GravaStar thinks you should - and they designed probably the most aesthetically insane keyboard I've ever laid hands on: the Mercury K1 Pro. But is this keyboard just all bark and no bite?
