    I've got an ErgoDox at home and a Kinesis Advantage II at work. I find the ErgoDox to be more sensible for light gaming (compared to the Kinesis), but the thumb cluster on the Kinesis is way easier (for me) to reach and navigate. I&#x2

    Hey, you do you! If you have reached equilibrium in that you are happy and fulfilled and also a productive member of the team, that seems great for all parties involved.
