<DIV>May be a last word re keyboard ergonomics – I work on a Sony Vaio which
I purchased because the keyboard has such a good touch. Layout
does not much matter to me but touch does – probably due to my other
favoured keyboard – namely a grand piano – preferably Steinway.</DIV>

anyone else find that the Microsoft Natural 4000 keyboard breaks rather more
often than it should? Or is one of our developers who has gone through 3 of
them in that many years worthy of his reputation as the Keyboard
Exterminator?<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

use the Microsoft Natural Keyboard Pro myself and find it much better than the
4000 but given they stopped making them years ago (the 4000 replaced them I
think?) I have to hoard them carefully... fortunately they also seem much more
robust than the 4000, don’t think I’ve had one break
yet.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
