I'm using a PS/2 Microsoft Natural Keyboard here at work. I brought this sucker from home, its from the 90s. I will love it forever. I really don't see why there is a need for anything more exotic than a standard split keyboard.

I got an OCZ Alchemy keyboard recently, for $20 before a $20 rebate.

It has a slightly shallow keystroke and a whole lotta buttons, but typing on it is pretty nice.

It's very optimized for gamers (no left Win key) and has a 2x3 Home/End/Del/PageUp/PageDown layout with a big Del key, but I like typing on it. Plus it has media player controls same as my MS Comfort Curve keyboard. Only wish it had a Calculator button.



The no left win key would bug me. I use the windows key quite often day-to-day. I have yet to see a really ergonomic gaming keyboard, although my hands were actually quite comfortable gaming on a MS Natural keyboard. I use an Ideazon Merc right now, and its comfortable but the keystroke isn't great on the gaming part of it.
