Using a flat keyboard is starting to hurt my forearms. I do a lot of typing, and that amount will only increase.
I’m looking into getting an ergonomic keyboard of some sort, and I’m also considering trying out the DVORAK layout, but I’d like input.
Last night, I switched to an old split keyboard of my husband’s, and immediately the pain lessened. That keyboard’s keys are quite stiff, though, and I would like to replace it with something with softer/easier keys.
I’m willing to invest, and I’m willing to use something weird like this system from DataHand or this system from Safetype, but I’d rather get feedback first.
Do you use an ergonomic keyboard? Like it? Which one? Do you use QWERTY or DVORAK? Is DVORAK easy to pick up if you’re 35 years old and a little set in your ways?
