Wow, lot of pessimism in this thread about a problem that has been solved pretty well more than once. Here's how I see it: Computer keyboards have one major problem: they cause carpal tunnel because your fingers have to fly all around the keyboard, especially to hit the modifier keys. Changing the order of the keys is a bit like rearranging the deck chairs on the titanic. Any solution solution has to move the modifier keys onto the thumbs and palm, and move the keys closer to the fingers in 3 dimensions so that finger travel is reduced. This is a solved problem now. You have to pay 300 bucks to get the keyboard and it's limited release, but you know how economies of scale work; if enough nerds want it, poor nerds will be able to get it eventually. I use this perfect keyboard, and it gives me instant wrist relief even if my fingers are screaming already from laptop keyboard use. This is my second of its type actually, the first was stolen :( and I had to deal with wrist pain until I could afford another one. That said, there is probably no way to fix the laptop keyboard, due to it lying in a plane (so the laptop is flat) and being tiny (must be smaller than the screen). So that sucks. it's a keyboardio if anyone is curious. They're doing another run soon if you want to back it. Just realized if you google the words I used in this post you get the kinesis keyboard, which is the same price and has several fewer features.
