colour me cautiously curious but mainly confused 😕
Life? Don't talk to me about life.
I would guess one of them died after a minor beverage mishap but the other is still going strong after multiple spills.
Is this too much voodoo?
Wired 200 is what I'm using for some time (3-4 years) without issues. I find it while looking for a keyboard with a (dirt) cheap price tag, known brand, and most importantly regular layout with real function keys/regular (higher) keys.
Wired 600 in the other picture is a textbook example of a keyboard that I never ever purchase... with that stupid modernish function keys.

Those low profile keys on the Wired 600 make it a no deal for me, and for the record whoever invented apple magic style keyboards needs to be shot dead twice:

Huh? I'm typing this on my over three years old Wired 600 keyboard, works fine.
Though I prefer PS/2 keyboards anyway 😜

We never say that it's not working as expected. We said that it feels like shit (wit those low height keys and non functional function keys 🤣 )

I would go one step forward and say that it is objectively and unobjectionably shit.

Is the OP going to explain his reasoning?

I don't have to; the others already explained it for me. 😀
