My new baby
To those people who rely on this site to find out just what it is that I do on a semi-regular basis I apologize. I didn't want to say anything without the photos and I was just lazy about getting them online. The keyboard is definitely unique... I haven't really had too much of a chance to spend long hours typing on it yet, but I have had to do a bit of work and I'll tell you that it is taking something to get used to. It has made me realize that I clearly don't know how to type properly. And that is true. I don't. I have never needed to learn. I can type fast enough for what I use the computer for and that is programming. However I am going to try and learn in the near future. Once classes are over I might take some time and learn the proper skills.
But in any case I am pleased. It works with my laptop and it even has my ctrl and capslock keys swapped by default. I only wish I had had the opportunity to try out the Kenesis USB Advantage Pro - which is another contoured keyboard, but it is quite powerful. It wasn't what I was looking for as best I could tell. However there is no store that sells that stuff in Halifax so I was forced to base everything off reviews that I read. No complaints so far.
