I liked the MS Natural, but it dropped dead on me and I haven't gotten another one, basically because I don't want all the enhanced "internet" features and it's hard to find a plain one. My other problem with it was that it barely fit into my keyboard tray. Then I bought one of those expensive (for me, anyway, $200) Kinesis keyboards. I know a lot of people love them, but it took me months to get used to it and I still made many of the same miskeying typos (B and V mostly), and I didn't like the placement of the home/end or arrow keys - I forget which now; I'd have to take it out of the box to look! Then I tried and am using now this A4 ergo keyboard with these funky pyramid-shaped keys. I got it from Dealsonic and it's quite inexpensive. It's okay. I'm not sure if I can tell the difference between it and a standard keyboard though. I did find that the Kinesis helped with shoulder pain I was experiencing from doing a lot of typing on a regular keyboard, but then shot the heck out of my speed. I'm not typing as much as I used to now but I'd probably drag the Kinesis out again if the shoulder pain returned.
