Get a natural keyboard- you'll never go back to the crappy squareish ones.

Oh, what the fuck. Natural Keyboards suck. They are all obscure, and supposed to be ergonomic. They are a bitch to use unless you did exactly what all the right type told you to do when you learned how to type.

I'm using a Logitech Cordless Desktop Pro, and it's a thing of beauty. It's just got a simple little curved slant for you to wrest your wrists on (I whipped my carpel-tunnel (sp)), and it's incredibly easy to use.

That's what I thought ... at first. I hated them when I was first exposed to them. HATED them. They hurt my wrists and that didn't make any sense to me.

Now I use one every day, and the straight kind of keyboard makes me mad. The natural ones are so comfortable and lovely and my delicate girly hands love them.

I don't like ergonomic keyboards.

I would try it out before buying if you even consider it.

If your computer "comes with a keyboard", your computer sucks.

Bleh, I use a normal keyboard. However, when considering getting a new keyboard I'm torn between wanting a backlit one (downside: usually really cramped) and a natural one (downside: have to get used to it, and wouldn't be backlit).

Why can't they make a backlit natural keyboard?
