i bought a cheap HP keyboard and mouse combination
and the keyboard lasted less than a year and the mouse
barely two years (it needs a special screwdriver to
open it, what a PITA). i replaced the keyboard with
a clicky type and i like it, but linux is currently
dropping it for some reason i've not figured out why
yet. i got a cheapie mouse to replace and it barely
lasted two months before i had to take it apart and
give the springs a tweak and now it's doing it again.

it doesn't help that i drop the mouses once in a
while on a hard floor... oops...
