Keyboard/mouse ?

Apple wireless (no numpad) keyboard and magic mouse. The magic mouse is incredible, apart from the two feet being fairly fast wearing. Big fan.

On my pc I use a Logitech G110 and G500. Also love those two.

Pretty nice for gaming, I don't think I could go back to the regular WASD keys now that I'm so used to it.

I have been using a logitech Mx518 for about 7 years but I recently got some mouse I can't recall the type (in the closet) as a backup for when this one goes out, if ever.
 
I have only a laptop now so the keyboard is the apple one, and honestly, I cannot go back now. I would buy an apple keyboard to plug it in a gamer PC if I had one. The soft but responsive touch is unreal when you get used to it. You only discover how good it is once you go back to another keyboard, it just feels like driving an old car after being used to your brand new one. I wish they released an apple keyboard with a PC keys setup for gaming.

I love the magic mouse, it's weird the first hours or days but then it's awesome. I hated the previous mouse though, the one with the little ball on top of it, I don't know how people could use this one, it was weird and not precise imo. With the new one, It's like using a mouse but thinking with your trackpad gestures all at once, you can swipe one finger, two finger, double tap, etc, just like your normal trackpad. The right/left clic recognition is flawless as well. I think it's better using another mouse for editing or precise things though because it's a little bit sensitive and it's easy to scroll when you don't want to. Or it's difficult to scroll left without scrolling a little bit up or down (can be annoying). I had one of those gaming mice (sound silly to write) with different dpi settings and stuff and it worked well until it died (the magic mouse seems more reliable though)

I don't use it anymore so much now because I exclusively use the MBP trackpad. Same, took me some weeks to get used to it instead of using the mouse, and now each time I try any competitor trackpad, it feels like I'm rubbing concrete, with unresponsive gestures. I have never tried the external trackpad they sell as well, but as silly as it would have sounded to me a year ago ("why the fuck would you use a trackpad instead of a mouse ?") I would consider it now if I had an iMac or a Mac Pro because when you're used to it, you can honestly do whatever you want with little effort, as long as it doesn't need extra precision (like gaming or editing). My MBP is the very first laptop for which I never feel the need to plug a mouse to, 24/7. Even for mixing a short project on Reaper or basic photo editing, I feel no pain doing it on the apple stock trackpad, it's precise, smooth, and responsive (would use the mouse for longer projects though). I think it's one of the best features of an apple MBP, and yet it's not considered by people who compare them with other brands. I would happily pay 100e to have it as an extra feature on a PC laptop if I wanted to buy one (if it was calibrated for windows because W7 doesn't feel as nice as OSX using it on my MBP). Same for its keyboard, although some competitors copied it (with rounded square soft plastic keys as opposed to big clicky PC keyboard keys) and made some decent ones.
 
I use an old IBM 8926 keyboard:

and a Razer DeathAdder on a Steelseries QCK(FYI the mousepad is just as important as your mouse.).
 
pt keyboard with a weighted logitech gaming mouse and kensington expert (both [plugged in) so i can switch wrist posture every so often. smart
 
Apple Keyboard and Logitech M705.

i'd like to lose the cord on the keyboard at some point, but it's a great feeling keyboard. for gaming in Windows, the fn button i find is a bit in the wrong place, but after some time you get used to it.

I don't think you would, for everything else they are awesome.
But for playing games 99% of the time you want a really tangible affirmation that you've pressed and are still pressing a key.

The #1 reason i still use old keyboards.
I bought a keyboard with low profile keys ~3 years ago.. i used it 3 times before giving it away to a friend and plugging in my old one again.
 
Using Apple's slim aluminum (w/ numpad) and Magic Mouse. I also have a Logitech MX510 as backup/for games. Never had a problem using this keyboard for games (FPS). *shrug*
 
Apple aluminum keyboard (with the cord and numpad) and a Logitech Performance Mouse MX. I've also got the Magic Trackpad on the left side of my keyboard, but I don't use it as much as my mouse.

I used to have the wireless model of the Apple keyboard, but I just need the numpad for PT and stuff, so I recently switched. I don't really need stuff to be wireless, I find. The Logitech's been going for over 3 years, and only recently has started developing some slight misclick/scroll wheel problems. Best mouse I've had so far, and I haven't really got any idea what to replace it with when it breaks. The Magic Mouse could be fine, but it's bluetooth and has a low dpi, so I'm not that sure... I hate mouse acceleration, and with the Logitech's dpi cranked (2000 IIRC) and all the speed multiplier stuff etc. turned off, it's been perfect.

When on the go, mobile tracking etc. I just always use the built-in keyboard and trackpad on my MBP.
 
I loove my Logitech g400, really handy for drum editing with its extra buttons. Rocks for playing Counter-Strike from time to time too! :D

For mobile recording I'm using one of those mini mouses.
 
I am a cheapass, don't own a keyboard at all, working on my laptop exclusivly and using the cheapest
mouse I could find...
But due to getting a whole new pc setup I am going to get me a decent keyboard/mouse combination.
