I love the MS Natural Keyboards and agree about the durability. I had one of them so long the little nubs on the J and F keys actually wore away and I couldn't place my hands by touch any more. (I scored the two keys with an old soldering iron.) I've tried the Sculpt keyboard, and just not as good for me. I do use the silver media and other keys along the top quite extensively, plus being a Vim user, the escape key seems to be a bit too dodgy. As they've been harder to buy, when my last one finally died (which is when I found I don't like the Sculpt that much) I ended up trading fixing someone's printer configuration for their barely used Natural keyboard that had been sitting in a corner for ages as they didn't like it. Going to be very sad when I can't find one any more.
