Sounds like something I'd tell my parents if I had money :P(I think I'll probably also get a new tablet.)
Google does it, so I guess they figure they can as well?So I found this today in the Splash feed:

idk why MS would do that, seeing as there's already assistants on the two other devices. What gives?

I won't be the one that says not to go for it, because currently I use my laptop as a desktop. It sits on a cooling pad (which needs to be replaced because it's old), and is hooked up to a monitor, keyboard, and mouse. :PI'm pondering about getting a desktop keyboard that is designed for gaming soon, as I think I will probably change my laptop into a funny-looking desktop. Thoughts?

If you do a lot of typing (or coding), you might look into getting a mechanical keyboard, which will offer significant benefits over a typical keyboard (and the built-in keyboard).
Sounds like a good idea. Got anything that is black and backlit? I'd like things to fit in well with my current rig and mouse setup.
Changing the channel is a pretty good bet if you live in an a residential area with a lot of wireless networks in range.
Not all mechanical keyboards are 'clicky.' Mine has Cherry MX Blue switches, so it makes a lot of noise, but there's a lot of response. You also have the option of the Cherry MX Switches, which feel like Blue switches, but lack the mechanical click noise. There are a good number of variations of switches that you can get, tailored to your own preferences. Otherwise, most keyboards that aren't mechanical aren't too different from the ones built into laptops, so there is little gain to using them, unless you want the extra keys or want to use the laptop with the lid closed (with a monitor).
Razer BlackWidow Ultimate Stealth (2014). Individually backlit keys, and uses Razer's own switches which are based off Cherry MX Brown. Isn't too clicky, and it's pretty damn responsive.
Thanks! I'll take a look at the keyboard switch types out there. I think I'd prefer something that's quiet, as I tend to end up using my computer in the middle of the night. Last thing I'd want to do is to wake other people up.
That does sound like the kind of thing I'm looking for. I think I'll also consider other vendors, though. What are the keyboard manufacturers that I should watch out for?
With mechanical keyboards, particularly if you are looking at the cheaper end of the market (Mechanical keyboards are never really cheap compared to non-mechanical), I would say that the manufacturer doesn't matter much as long as you get the right switches.
