While the shape of keyboards is not ergonomic by itself, my experience is that cheap keyboards (especially the ubiquitious rubber dome/membrane variety) are much, much, much harder on the body than a semi-decent "mechanical" board. One reason is that rubber dome/membrane keyboards require bottoming out to register keystrokes. Most mechanical mechanisms/switches can register before the key is fully depressed.
