REVIEW – I love cookies, cakes, pies, chocolate, and basically anything with sugar in it. That might explain why I became a pre-diabetic back in 2004 when I used to eat Poptarts and regular Cokes for breakfast. Yikes! I don’t do that anymore, but I still like sweets. I just am smarter about what I

REVIEW – My large full size keyboard at my workstation has been a bit of overkill: I rarely use the number pad and could definitely use that space to the right for more mouse space. I was excited to review the Epomaker SK21 numpad and move to a smaller everyday keyboard. Overall I’m pretty pleased
