Nope, unfortunately, the Goldtouch doesn't

And I don't like the key feel of the Goldtouch that much (not clicky enough for me).
Is your Lexmark anything like these? (My dream keyboard, sigh. Somebody who posts here has one of them, but they're in the really prohibitive price range now, something like $500+.)http://www.clickykeyboards.com/index.cfm/fa/categories.main/parentcat/12675
If so, what a shame yours is wearing out. Maybe you could get it repaired? http://www.pckeyboard.com/FAQs.html#Q8
Why, oh why, oh why, did they stop manufacturing good split keyboards like this? Especially the IBMs. I might try a Comfort ErgoFlex or ErgoMagic next time. http://www.sforh.com/keyboards/split.html
Thanks so much for the followup. :) And best of luck. I well know how hard it is to think about going to any other style (totally split, with separation, that is) of keyboard now.

Nope! I only stress over things worth stressing over, which doesn't include turkey & taters!
Nope, I don't feel "LUCKY" to be treated like an imbicile by my company. Nope, No way.

Goldtouch?
Where did you get this Goldtouch, Midas ?? I think the Natural was the one I used before. Can you adjust the Goldtouch or does the company?
2nd vote here for Goldtouch.

goldtouch keyboards anyone?
I did a search but came up empty handed, which I do not understand as I recall seeing Goldtouch mentioned before.
Are people generally happy with this keyboard?
more info on the Goldtouch.

While it's not to my liking, it may be good for those who aren't really partial to a very clicky, mechanical keyswitch type of feel and who don't need a totally split keyboard. And it's fairly economical compared to many good ergo keyboards.
Just curious...for those of you who use a Goldtouch
I am considering purchasing a Goldtouch keyboard. I have had a total of 4 wrist surgeries in the past and did some reading about this keyboard and would like to give it a try.
I am just curious, for those of you who use one, how long does it take to get used to using it?
Any info you could give would be very helpful!
TIA
Goldtouch is brand name. see msg.

I always get mine on eBay. They aren't cheap but you definitely get what you pay for and they are great, in my opinion.
I think a Goldtouch? was rek'd before. Might do a net search

If you still like the Goldtouch, you can get them on ebay nm

Goldtouch Keyboard
I just got a Goldtouch keyboard with seperate number pad. I can't get my ALT functions to work on the keyboard or the number pad. I speaking about ALT 171 for 1/2 etc. Does anyone have a Goldtouch answer?
Goldtouch ergonomic keyboard
Check out ebay for keyboards. I use a Goldtouch, whic tents up in the middle, like a teepee. Got used to it real quick. Now it seems totally strange and uncomfortable to use a "regular" keyboard.
I have a Goldtouch and love it! You can split it sm
to whatever angle you want, and also "tent" it up. I used to use the Microsoft Natural and loved it, but this is even better! 
I have a Goldtouch. It has held up for two or three years already. nm

Use mine for work sometimes, but plug in my Goldtouch sm
keyboard and "real" mouse. Obviously, too cumbersome for just "play" at a coffee house or something, but when I travel, I do pack the "good stuff" with me 
I have tried almost all the weird keyboards there are. I buy them off Ebay. GoldTouch is my

Could someone help me on my Tech Help question re. Goldtouch keyboard?
Please see my question on the Technical Help board. Thanks
I haven't tried the Kinesis, but I use a Goldtouch, and love it. sm
You can split it however far you want it, "tent" it up and do whatever you need to make it as comfortable as possible. I have heard good things about the Kinesis (are you referring to the one with the "wells?"), but it is kinda pricey, and I think it takes awhile to get used to it. Let me know what you think if you get one.
Good luck!
Love my Goldtouch -- can spread it apart and tent it up however you like. nm
I love my Goldtouch -- can usually find them reasonably priced on eBay. nm
Why are YOU attacking HER? Just because she doesn't want kids, doesn't mean she needs a psychi

Ilove my Goldtouch -- you can make it a "'weird shaped" or not so weird shaped sm
as you want. You can split it apart and angle it however you like and even tent it up too. It definitely has helped me a LOT! Before that, I used the Microsoft Natural and loved it, but this is even better. :-)
Keyboards - Goldtouch, Kinesis Maxium, Kinesis Freestyle (sm)
Has anyone bought and used these keyboards within the last year? I want a new keyboard and was looking at the above 3 mentioned. I was favoring the Goldtouch but when I goggled Goldtouch reviews there seemed to be so many negative reviews - keys sticking, keyboard collapsing in tented position, etc. Has anyone bought these keyboards within a year or so and could you tell me how you like them? Would appreciate your input so very much.
nope
I did that for a while, gave QA, my TC everyone my private email and then I got an email and phone call from my TC, no longer would I receive emails from them unless I did it through Imail..and now this new darn system..I dont need this drama in my life, for pete sake, Im just trying to make a paycheck, ya know??
Nope...
not if being paid on production. Questions and blanks go straight to QA. But this could depend on how much experience you have.
nope

nope! nm
Did someone ask you what you think????? Nope!!!

I would just chalk it up to experience and move on. Actually, that is just what I did, or had to do. If I was counting on them to either pass my tests, or offer me a position, I would have starved to death long ago. I had even found THEM work with a small company that was looking for an MTSO to do some of their accounts. I was promised that since I found the positions for them, that I would be one of them to test for the jobs. NEVER happened. They gave the testing and the positions to three others. When I questioned them about it, they told me that they had not even gotten the accounts, even after I learned they had signed the contracts. Consider it a loss, and take it off next year's taxes. That is the only way you will get any compensation back, and a lesson learned. But frankly, I am still bitter. Even though I found some pretty good positions and am doing now what I love. Good Luck.
nope
You would burn them up in no time. I would recommend unlimited services like Vonage or zerocents.com
nope
I would do this if not verbatim
She is a 66-year-old white female, recently transferred to our practive with diabetes mellitus, hypothyroidism, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia, who I refer, blah blah
Nope, not for you. sm
Sorry. I must have gotten the Florida thing wrong. I thought she also said she was going to Florida, so I'm sorry for having the wrong destination. And I wasn't trying to pick some sort of fight. I was merely posing another opinion/option. There's nothing wrong with not taking the kids on a BUSINESS trip. BTW, thanks for the all-caps on the BUSINESS thing. It didn't come off at all snotty. So, no, my response wasn't meant for you. Thanks for asking, though.
Nope
Gave up holidays years ago and have never regretted it.
nope..
you are mistaken here. type 0-9 in three lines in NotePad and save it as a file. You will see 30 bytes, not KBs.
:)))
Nope.
Been there done that. The online classes are a joke and it is almost completely self study. Wish I had saved my money.
Nope, not to much to ask and we never should
have to! That said, while I tried all the usuals, nothing got my kids attention as much as no clothes to wear, no clean glasses and their rooms smelling like something died in them.
MOM, where's my jeans? How should I know, I did'nt wear them, usually led to finding them on the floor under 3 feet of whatever. They all got the same printed list of how to do's and now they do them well.
nope
the company I'm involved with puts food on the table and pays my bills........I don't exactly call that "gotten to me".....
Nope
Sorry, but it's all hype, and potentially dangerous. If you research it at medical sites, the phrase perforated colon is usually mentioned!

Nope. You really don't get it, do you? sm
I don't think any amount of explaining is going to make you understand, either. The same thing that was MISSING when you posted seeking medical advice for what could have been an emergency is the same thing that is keeping you from understanding why people are annoyed every time you post anything. Go back. Start at your post and the content of it. Begin at square 1 and read your post and the responses, followed by more of your posts. I have little hope you'll ever get a clue about anything, considering your original post.
nope. www.dol.gov -- they don't have to do that.
it's in their best interest to do that but not required to
Nope!
I surely would not, though there are many things about the job I like; i.e, working at home - making great money. What I don't like about it is always being tied down to it - can't take days off or vacation - that sort of thing. But then, there's no job that's perfect, right?
Nope! I just tell her to go lay down, and she goes. nm

Nope, I have never
had any kind of medical terminology course or MT course. I just lucked out. I worked in the billing department for a small hospital and the HIM manager called me up one day out of the blue and offered me a job as a transcriptionist. They trained me and started me out at normal certified salary.
nope, that's not it (sm)
I wish I had my wits about me enough to have thought to snap a picture. Trying to remember from the quick glimpses I had (at a safe distance). The harder I try to remember the less I do. Kinda of like the poster above who said by the end of the week it will grow as she tells the story. I can still see that tongue flicking at me though. Ugh.
nope, but I think there are
some sort of mystery fumes filtering through the computer screens today and people have sniffed it a little too long and it gave them a major case of WHINY HINEY.
nope. not at all
Yes. I agree with once in a while, but on a weekly or daily basis? Nope! Especially with young children at home. Married folks have to pull together, not apart.
DH and I have different interests on occasion. He is a runner, I'm a camper. I go camping with our youngest (16 yo DS) fairly often. DH would rather be on the track running in circles. So we often take a few days off and go in different directions -- me to the hiking trails, him to a track meet (and he's a gold medalist in the 1500 m Masters Nationals this year -- had to crow!). But when our kids were little, never, NEVER did he or I go and hang out anywhere on a regular basis. How unfair to whoever is left at home!
Nope that was the pay I saw for a job
That is why I asked it seemed funny
Nope...
this doesn't work either but thanks for trying.
Nope.
But I work on EditScript and it doesn't really interrupt anything. I don't have to worry about TAT either.
