A very good keyboard. I have no complaints with this keyboard. I installed it on a Microsoft Windows Vista system and then a Microsoft Windows XP system. In both cases, there were no problems with the installation and the operation of this keyboard. The keys have a good tactile response. I also loved the ergonomic design. Typing is now less work. I will never use a standard keyboard again!
wonderful product I was a little unsure about purchasing an Ergo keyboard since I knew it would be a little adjustment. But it is wonderful! It is very comfortable and natural and since using it I don't have any more problems with carpral tunnel syndrome. I would recommend this product.
Paint on keys wear off and not covered! In only about 6 months the paint on the keys are worn off badly. About half a dozen keys I can't barely even see! The 'N' which really among all the keys is completely gone! And Microsoft DOES NOT stand behind their products saying normal wear and tear is not covered! So basically I am screwed and they would replace it but it would cost me more than I paid for it originally! I WILL NEVER purchase another hardware product from Microsoft since they don't stand behind their products anymore!
Do you love your wrists? Buy this. I've had a normal qwerty keyboard for several years. I have very broad shoulders, and in order to line up my hands on a standard keyboard, I had to rotate my left wrist at an acute angle (~70 deg). My wrist started becoming very sore after extended use, so I bought this ergo keyboard. It is fantastic! Some people complain about the space bar being difficult to depress, which is true if you're pressing at the extreme edges of the button. The short answer is, place your thumbs where they should be, and you'll have no trouble hitting the space bar. After all, this keyboard is ergonomic. Also, there are a BUNCH of extra application keys. Very useful. Lastly, I was unable to get the zoom slider to work (center of keyboard). For some reason it defaulted as a scroll slider. Not a big deal, but I have a scroll wheel on my mouse, so I really wanted teh zoom to actually zoom. That's software issue though.
Great Keyboard!!! This is a great Keyboard. It has many new features than the older models. It makes computing all the more easier. Several quick buttons can be set for your 5 main sites or even documents on your computer. If you are surfing the internet.. you can easily hit the "back" or "forward" buttons. Hit a button and the Calculator appears. If you have to use an ergonomic keyboard I highly recommend this one!!
