The biggest reason I can't see making the switch to ergo keyboards is that at the end of the day I'm still stuck with my laptop when I'm out and about. It's just too much trouble to retrain my brain when I can only use these fancy keyboards 50% of my time.
- jasonlotito 13y agoThis is my reason for sticking with the wireless keyboard.It means I essentially get the same keyboard, same button positions, same feel whether I'm at a desk or using my laptop's keyboard.
- deckiedan 13y agoI'm actually learning the 'workman' layout at the moment, on my MS 4000 ergonomic keyboard at home, while sticking with qwerty on 'normal' keyboards at work. I like the idea of using a more efficient layout than qwerty, but still need to be able to sit down at any user's computer and help them and type quickly (sysadmin and support work...) It seems to be going pretty well... Having a quite different shaped keyboard makes it feel quite different. In some ways it's just like playing different instruments. I can quite happily switch between Clarinet, Recorder, Flute, Sax, etc, and that's considered reasonably normal amongst musicians. No reason computer keyboards should be any different.
