So I've just joined the mechanical keyboard community. Got a shiny new CM Quickfire Stealth with Cherry MX Browns. I've got a pretty well loved Logitech MX10. My desk is looking pretty slick... If it weren't for the nearly 30 year old, ragged and dirty Mouse pad. I got it from my dad when I was a kid and it has some how survived through the years despite looking pretty frayed. I'd post a photo of it but I'm too ashamed to. It has a literal blood stain.
I gotta ditch it... I need some thing new. So inspire me guys, lets see some of your mouse pads and general desk set ups. What do you have sitting next to your cool keyboards?
-
Artisan Hayate. Though it can be a lint magnet.

There's like 30 different threads and circlejerks for this one.

I just really wanna see that mousepad

Care to direct me then instead of just complaining?
I literally see nothing but one discussion about a Perixx Keyboard/Mouse Matt.

Try search. Choose search by topics and type in mousepad.
-
Hayate is on Massdrop right now for like half the MSRP. Would recommend anyone considering one to pick one up.
-
I also recommend Artisan. Most people discuss mousemat/pad in this subtopic section (http://geekhack.org/index.php?board=71.0).

Woah.. Woah... I am not a lazy socialist. I may be a liar, a pig, an idiot, a lazy socialist, but i am not a porn star. I say good day sir.
Also here's my gross old mousepad cus hwood34 wanted to see it.
-
Wow. Yeah, ew.
-
That thing is dirtier than my front door mat.
-
Sweet Jesus ... you weren't kidding about that blood stain.
-
It's probably about 26 years old. I really don't remember when I got it. My dad used to be an Amiga software engineer and we've had computers and junk around as far as I can remember. At some point I got my own machine and just took one of his old ones. So I really don't know how long he had it before me. But yeah been using it for years. It may be the only mouse pad I've ever used. No idea why I haven't swapped it out before because it is pretty horrid. Lazy I guess? Afraid of change? Blissfully unaware of how godawful it is... no... no I know.
And no I was not lying about the blood stain. Why would I go on the internet and post lies?
I'm tempted to email this picture to various nice mouse pad companies and see if one of them sends me a shiny new one out of pity.
-
Sweet jesus, put it out of its misery
-
Or just use the table top.
I have a 10-year-old glass Steelseries that has been fabulous.
-
Wow that mouse pad looks rough.
