I dunno. I'm all in favour of companies innovating but, these days, I'm starting to feel like it's better to adapt myself to "whatever is bog-standard enough that I can trust there to be many different suppliers offering replacements for as long as I'm alive".

It's bad enough that I'm used to Unicomp buckling springs when they retired their "bog-standard US104" layout in 2013. (I had to use eBay saved searches to acquire two spare units and I'm planning to buy a bag of replacement parts.)

It's bad enough that the Logitech G3 mouse that I bought in 2007 hooked me on the "bog-standard mouse, but with two added "cycle workspace" buttons, no red light bleed, and a wired connection" design that isn't that common anymore. (I bought a Logitech G203 so I could box up my G3 as a spare.)

Am I allowed to be a grumpy old man at age 34?
