Kinesis Advantage USB Keyboard (QD Model)
My fingers fall perfectly on the contours of the Kinesis Advantage USB/QD Keyboard for Macs and PCs. This funny-looking but friendly device, which comes in white and black, puts the space and backspace buttons directly under my thumbs. Now that I type in the ergonomic Dvorak layout, I barely have to move my fingers beyond the home row. My typing speed is faster, and my long hours at the keyboard are much more comfortable than when I used a flat QWERTY keyboard. The QD model has a hardware switch for alternating between the unusual Dvorak and the ubiquitous QWERTY layouts, so I can change it to a standard keyboard for visitors who need to use the latter.
