      I just bought a Microsft keyboard, traditional layout with a few extra buttons. This was so I could get a good quality keyboard, the Compaq ones at work are rubbish. Elaine :rose: The tigress is here :-D

The keyboard action itself is okay, but the stupid #@#@!$@ firmware in it doesn't behave precisely according to the BIOS protocol. As a result, during a reboot, it locks up the BIOS in my PC about 2 times in 3, requiring a smack on the reset button (which of course is one of those equally stupid recessed things). The one good thing I have left from my brief fling with carrying a Palm Pilot; the old stylus makes a perfect recessed-reset-button pusher.

                Buy one that makes click sounds - some of the newer keyboards have keys so soft that they are silent - keyboards gotta make that clickety sound else it's rather weird :-)

                    I love my Goldtouch[^] keyboard. Less strain on the arms, and I type faster now than with any other keyboard I've tried. Very expensive though. Cheers, Fredrik

                      You could go old school[^], hardcore[^], all green peace[^] or, like me, new age[^]. The MS one that I have is a lovely keyboard. The multimedia controls on it are surprisingly useful (though the other app keys are less so and the Function Lock is annoying till you have remapped them). regards, Paul Watson South Africa PMW Photography Gary Wheeler wrote: It's people like you that keep me heading for my big debut on CNN...

                      is that microsoft keyboard you have one of those with no insert key? it does look nice in the picture, and i am totally wedded to my current basic microsoft ergonomic keyboard. i would never go back to a straight keyboard, but nice split keyboards seem to be very rare. however i have the sound of the function key lock problem :~ zen is the art of being at one with the two'ness
