Which do you prefer/is comfortable? The normal style or the slanted?

$29.99 plus $20 mail-in rebate = $9.99..I might pick it up. I got the one that looks exactly like this, but the keys are straight and normal.

That style of keyboard is known as the natural keyboard.

If you can type properly, it should be fine. If not, you'll probably hate it.

Yeah, I hate those effed up keyboards.

I use that exact keyboard and love it. If you are a good typer then chances are you will be even better w/ it. Takes some getting used to, but once you do it is even harder to go back to a regular keyboard.

I type well and we had one of those. I didn't type well when we had it.

Yes, I know thats its a natural kb

Hmm..for $10? Maybe I should give it a shot?

I can type 48-55wpm on a regular kb.

I have an ergonomic keyboard (with the giant split down the middle.) I've used it for well over 6 years now. I simply cannot type on the normal straight keyboards anymore.

Hmm..I'm getting a free IBM laptop from my college, I guess I should just stick to the normal one than.

Bandit, which school are you going to? My college did the same thing.

BTW, natural keyboards rock. I'm trying to wait for the wireless desktop pro version which is in sexy black.
