The keyboard. It has to be one of the dirtiest and most dusty environments if one doesn’t keep it clean. The keyboard is also a place where a collection of muffin crumbs, spilt coffee, dust, and fingerprints, seem to find their way onto the mosaic of buttons.
And if you spill enough coffee, well it’s bye-bye keyboard. Thankfully, technology has moved forward and now there is finally a gadget which is virtually indestructible - no really.
Goodbye short circuits. You’d be amazed at what this thing can actually do.
The keyboard is thin, contains all buttons, and plugs into your USB port or PS/2 Port (adapter included). When buttons are pressed they don’t make any clunk or clatter at all. So, if you work late on your computer and people keep complaining about the noise of you typing, then this might be the thing for you.
There no space for dust to get into the keyboard, so dust really doesn’t become a factor. Now just what did GrandTec USA, the makers of the Virtually Indestructible Keyboard, put this keyboard through?
They threw it down stairs, at walls, submerged it completely in water, rolled up like a newspaper, spilt coffee on it, and sprayed it with cleaners. And the keyboard still survived all of that abuse.
The Virtually Indestructible Keyboard has the following dimensions: 516×149x10 mm or in inches:
The keyboard costs $24.99 and their Glow Type version (illuminated keyboard), costs $39.99.
That’s a pretty good deal considering you can wash this thing and are free of all your kids (or your) messes and dust that begin to clutter the keyboard and make it an unhygienic environment.

4“And if you spill enough coffee, well it’s bye-bye keyboard.” Like LoL !!! You just need a screwdriver to open the keybord, some water to wash the cofee away and set of tishues to clean the water. Ehhhh….

7[...] And this reminds me of a virtually undestructible keyboard a friend told me about. I’m guessing they added the ‘vitually’ after watching the video I linked above. [...]

8Old news, they’ve had these for years. They should be called endurance keyboards or something, because they deffinately aren’t ‘indestructable’.

10I can think of a few ways to “destruct” it…
1. knife the crap outta it.. or just poke it a few time with it
2. stab it with a pen
3. Fire… It is rubber :-p
4. a lot of needles
5. A gun shot.
6. twist the crap outta it
