>Any recommendations?
Rick,
I have 2 reccomendations:
If I am working at a clients site where I am allowed to bring in my own favorite equipment, I bring in a MS Natural keyboard (older version) and a Logitech Mouseman optical (I am even more addicted to this particular mouse which is not in production anymore - I have scoured ebay for good ones <g>) *with* cord. I have sets for each of the home office machines and 3 sets for client work (usually leave one at the clients office and have a spare one in the car/for the laptop).
If I am working for a client with a "hands off our HW" policy (forcing me to switch over to a traditional keyboard layout) for a sizeble chunk of time I exchange all my home office machines with IBM keyboards to keep a similar layout while still giving me a superior keyboard - necessary as my style of typing is - mmmhhhh - quite agressive. Take the time to find devices fitting your body and style. After reaching a decision buy enough of them to always have a fall back option.
The IBM keyboards I got a few years back when a client exchanged a lot of machines: I got a dozen used ones for a silly price just to get them of their hands and most work today. Made the decision to grow such an unusal habit a lot easier, but I mistype often enough on my own, so I don't need any help from bad/misaligned keyboards <g>.
regards
thomas
