Keyboard died!!
« on: Aug 02, 2007, 10:48:08 PM »
My old keyboard of 8 years finally started to give us a slow death.  We lost m,n,h,y and u!  So, I wnt and did some research to find a rplacement.  So,I have to use the stock one and I keep messing up the kuys!

Here's the one I had and my new replacement!

And if you've never used one, once you get used to it, you'll never go back to a standard keyboard.  It hurts my writs to use the standard keyboards.  Trust me spend $34 for the ergonomic keyboard and you'll wish you've never wasted your time with the others! 


(edit: it took me 3 x's longer to type this than normal)

I use the MS "Natural" keyboard and have since I got my first PC. I can't hardly type on anything else.

I figured there must be some advantage to them -- but they sure do look strange!

I use the two-finger method of typing, and still have to correct lots of errors...   :ack:

:yikes: I can't type on them either... but with as much typing as I do, I can't see learning being a problem :ack:
