I use a Miscrosoft Natural Multimedia, like this: Click here for the full 1024x647 image. In fact I have 2 of them, one at work and one at home. They're cheap (£15-£20 about 5 years ago I think), comfortable, and built like tanks; and they're both still going strong to this day. Problem is they're very noisy when typing at any speed and it just so happens that I've recently moved into a deathly quiet office, so I'm constantly getting tuts, tsks and eye rolls; hooray for  .And advice on a quiet ergo split keyboard with a vertical Home/End block? I've seen too many negative reviews of the Natural 4000 to give it a look (that and the home/end block is horizontal - boo hiss)

Pendragon posted:This keyboard is the most comfortable I've ever typed on. Key press is very smooth, layout is fantastic, and you can dynamically remap the entire layout on the fly. I have trigger finger in my pinkies, and the fact that I can rebind any key and hook up a pedal and rebind the shift key has kept me able to type. Best $300 I've ever spent. I don't suppose it's quiet is it? It's around £180 though so there's no way I'd buy it without trying it out somewhere, and I can't think of a brick and mortar store in the UK that would let me try one out.

Hi, I'd like to pay an enormous sum for a keyboard please. There are however caveats involved... - Quiet. Very quiet if possible. Noise is number 1 problem with my current keyboard. - Split keyboard; a la Microsoft Natural. Or at least something that wont make my loving wrists BURN. - Vertical home/end/page/insert block - it makes sense!  Currently using a Microsoft Natural Multimedia keyboard, and as much as I love it, my coworkers bitch and moan about the clackity clack that comes from my desk when I get in the groove. Betting no one can help me!

on Cherry MX blacks. I highly doubt they will offer brown/blue/red options.

Utterly anecdotal but my wrists feel like they're burning after an hour on a normally laid out keyboard. I much prefer split ergo ones. (MS Natural Multimedia atm) That said... The thing that made the most difference was getting a decent mouse. I have ridiculously massive farmer hands, and so I find the logitech MX1000 (of which I have 4!) really helps support my whole hand, so that i move more at the elbow than the wrist. Im not a doctor, but I am a giant geek who spends endless hours using both keyboard and mouse (and trackIR but thats for a different thread). Cant say that I've tried diluting my ergo keyboards yet though....
