The Devil You Say!

The Devil You Say!

There I am.  Grandma.  Or GrammiePam with Kisses, rocking the 1 year old baby girl in my arms while the rest of the gang busily unwraps, eyes devouring, mind assimilating, their current Christmas gift.

 Also, on my lap is a new keyboard and it says iMac compatible.  Yay!

Still in its black box, Miss Lilly leans her baby body over and with infant fingers touches and caresses the red devil figure on the front.   She’s into matching shapes, you know, so when her eyes spy the other red devil at the other corner of the box she quickly leans forward further and lets her baby index finger outline it, too.

“Ewwww, red devil.”

This keyboard, as requested, is iMac compatible.  The last one wasn’t.   I had to unplug it frequently to get it to work, then came the day I spilt hot sweet tea on courser keys, shift keys and return key…they decided to stick.  So, as requested, this is iMac compatible.

Compatible????
COMPATIBLE!

Seriously, you should see this thing!

Like the devil, its keys GLOW RED IN THE DARK.
It glows green.
It glows blue. 
Am I, GrammiePam, ready for the “new”?
The gifter said, “A gaming keyboard for you!”
What the devil?

So, I look at the particulars. It touts. “No mechanics switch”, instead…”membrane switch”.  
Are you serious?
Then it boasts, molding keycaps –- “fading  and double-shot.”
Oh yah?  What’s that?
And, (lower your voice like a man and whisper to say), “breathing” mode.

Breathing mode?  What the devil is breathing mode?
At this point I’m picturing a whoosh of air coming from red-flared nostrils and spouts of steam from beneath evil horns!

Well, this grandma scoured the Internet typing in “definition”, then “gaming keyboard” and finally “Redimp.”  Isn’t that just perfect?  Redimp.  I love that brand name, it makes me smile.   Devil’s smile sneakily beckons, “I know all.  I know you. I know this is your weakness.  Come to me.  We’ll play.  We’ll have fun.”


My devil adds, “Pssst, don’t forget, you have anti-ghosting keys.”
