Microsoft Natural Ergonomic 4000

The Microsoft Natural Ergonomic 4000 keyboard takes a bit of getting used to, but is well worth the effort.

1) It is very comfortable to use, the reverse tilt stops you straining your wrists and the split keys keeps your wrists straight, not bent at an uncomfortable angle.

2) The keys are easy to press and responsive. Even the spacebar, reponds to a press anywhere on it, even the very corners.

3) It enables you to press down lots of keys at once, up to about 10 at once (well, I ran out of fingers at 10!!)

4) The media buttons along the top are very useful. They save an endless amount of time because instead of having to reach over to your mouse every time you want to open a new program, you can have 5 saved to the favourite buttons, open your email, search for a file, open your internet browser, even scroll up and down a page, for each of these you just need to move a finger rather than reach over to your mouse.

5) If you need to do calculations often there is a hyperlink button to open the calculator (just above the number pad) and they have some extra buttons built into the number pad that you often need to use, =, (, ), and backspace.
