Has anyone tried the split keyboard? If so, are they easy to get use to? My favorite one is my Microsoft, with the built in arm rest, but they do not make them anymore and my backspace is broke!!!

keyboard dyslexia?
This is driving me insane!! For the past month or so, I've been having a horrible time with transposing my letters when I type them out so many of my words are jumbled. It's kind of annoying!! I go through this from time to time and then suddenly, I'm back to typing normal. Does this ever happen to you?
should also add I use an ergo keyboard (nm)

First of all, get a black keyboard. (sm)
But I have alcohol wipes I use about once a week over the keyboard. It helps a lot. Or even HandiWipes help. But to get down in the valleys I do resort to a Q-Tip and alcohol on occasion.
I have an HP keyboard that I've had since
October of 2007. Not a single key is even slightly worn (and yes I do use it daily). Are you buying the white/ecru keyboards? Mine's black and I think the black ones keep the letters on longer.
Keyboard question
I had to buy a new Microsoft keyboard today because I dumped a whole cup of tea on mine. I use a Microsoft Ergonomic 4000. I always wear the letters off the keys. Does anybody have any tricks to keep this from happening? They wear off within a couple of weeks, drives me nuts.
Keyboard cover?
Does anybody use a cover on their keyboard (while working). I dumped tea all over mine the other day, and had to buy a new one. I always wear the letters off the keys within weeks, and thought maybe a cover would help. TIA

wireless mouse and keyboard sm
Does anyone have any problems with theirs? When we press on an icon or something in the browser it seems to take a long time. I find the computer freezes up at time. I told my husband maybe is is the wireless equipment. He tells me know. I only have had it since Xmas.
TIA
Your keyboard sounds like mine.

Medical transcriptionist melts keyboard with fingertips
Ryan sez, "We have a medical Transcriptionist on staff who has been using the same keyboard for the last 8.5 years. My co-worker replaced it yesterday, and when he first showed it to me I thought someone had taken a blowtorch to it! The most frequently used keys have been completely worn through, exposing the mechanism beneath. Zoom in and check out the indentation on the Backspace key! The keyboard still works fine, so there's something to be said for durability. BTW, it's a NMB Technologies model RT2358TW."
Some people are hard on keyboards -- I tend the blow the contacts on the left side of the board really fast, knocking out the Ctrl, Alt and left side of the spacebar. Charlie Stross's keyboards lose their lettering in mere months, and my pal Seth Schoen types like a machinegun, but I've never noticed any particular wear on his keyboards.
why is the space bar on the keyboard so long as opposed to other keys? nm

When my arms no longer reached the keyboard, I was suspicious.
I then lapsed into a coma and didn't wake up until there was a strange person with spiked orange hair in my kitchen, demanding the keys to my car. It was either a burglar or my child - I don't know. They've never come back with the car, but that's not proof of anything so I haven't filed a police report yet.
Love my Microsoft 4000 keyboard, but do not drip even 2 drops of water in it - nm

I broke my keyboard tray off when I was startled and jumped. Terrible startle reflex. NM
