curves!

I think I'm one of the few quirky people to have almost every version of Microsoft's Natural keyboard range. The Microsoft Natural Ergonomic Keyboard 4000 has only deepened my love for these comfortable input gadgets.

These are what makes the Microsoft Natural Ergonomic Keyboard 4000 so good:
1. the palm-rest can be raised which takes pressure of fingers
2. calculator button is well placed and a decent size too
3. Back / forward buttons are placed close to thumbs
4. It's black - white gets too dirty too quickly
5. USB wired powered - had my fair share of cordless keyboards and replacing/recharging batteries was a hassle. Even worse, when there aren't any charged batteries around!
6. Padded palm-rest for added comfort

Please take note that these types of keyboards are designed for touch-typists. If you're a finger-pecker you'll probably be more annoyed at the split hand-aligned sections.

Microsoft, you've still got a fan in me :)
