I'll never buy a new non-split keyboard

  I've been using the Microsoft Natural series keyboards for years. Split, and ergonomic.

  Windows works fine if you just plug 2 keyboards into it. Left hand on one keyboard, right hand on the other; works exactly as if you had one keyboard. Uses a bit more desk space but way cheaper and super easy to manage in an office setting. I only recently tested this out on a mac and was sad to see that shift/ctl/buckey on one keyboard didn't affect keys on the other keyboard. Probably not worth opening a bug with them.

    And if you take a sawzall to it, you can get rid of the unnecessary part to save desk space! :D

      I've found that the "dedicated" split keyboards don't necessarily have a comfortable distance in the split. The two keyboards end up about about a body width apart especially if I use a standing desk. These days I use an old M4-1 keyboard (first gen thinkpad keyboard / trackpoint in a standalone keyboard) because I just don't type as much as I used to and I value the desk space.
