Keyboards

[ffutures]

Keyboards have been much on my mind recently - I thought I was going to have to replace my favourite, used another for a couple of months and found that my speed and accuracy plummeted, and have now managed to get the old one working again.

The classic Apple (ADB) Extended Keyboard (either original or II; I think the II is slightly better, but not enough to make me hate the original). So good that people are still getting ADB-USB adapters so they can keep using them.

I'm currently using the Kinesis Advantage, which is a "well" keyboard with the keys recessed in two areas. It works really well for me. (It did take some getting used to, but once I adjusted I found my RSI was significantly improved.)

I can be happy with just about any computer keyboard but my cat definitely prefers the ergonomic model for sleeping purposes.

Hope it's easy to vacuum...

Not really, but I do still have the keyboard from my previous computer if the current one gets kitty clogged too bad.

I have to turn off the computer when my cat sits on the keyboard because he has an uncanny ability to start and manipulate multiple programs. His favorite is Outlook Express. Its a good thing I never set it up for use or my friends might get some kitty spam.

I've got a Mac Pro keyboard I sometimes use with my iBook, that seems a nicely made keyboard too.
