I approve of this keyboard. I use the same one (more or less) at work.

I have a Microsoft Sidewinder keyboard [^] at home which I like because I can remove the numeric keypad occasionally when I am not using it and it gives me more desk space. It will actually attach to the left side as well as the usual right side but after trying it for a couple of weeks I found it was too big a change for my old typing fingers to handle. I would probably change to a Logitech like I have at work (which is my own, not the company's) but I spent so much on the Sidewinder I want to wait until it breaks first - and it is very well made!
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.
