Re: Ergo Keyboard Expo
Thanks for sharing. Were all of the boards from your collection and how many people were at the event? The Typematrix 2030 isn't mine. The owner uses a customised bepo layout. It's really good to meet someone else with an interest in these things. There was around 12 people, maybe more I think. Eve...

The keymouse was well received. I'm impressed with it so far.

This time, it's held at Microgaming's office (They let a local tech group I belong to use one of their meeting rooms in their frankly gorgeous building).

Re: Left-handed vertical mouse: how steep is the learning curve?
Just keep going. Vertical mice (left or right) feel really clumsy at first, and after a few years I'm still faster with a flat mouse in my right hand, but after a while that would start to hurt. In my my, the transition was well worth it.

Re: Pop up Keyboard Museum
I have to admit to just using a laptop at home, but then I don't tend to type much outside of work. I do have a few 'normal' boards, too. Nice spot! The M15 was quite popular, along with the cherry and the cykey. I tend towards ergo keyboards as I have an issue with my nerves in my arms (not as dram...

Pop up Keyboard Museum
I joined a tech group just a few weeks back, they were thinking of a subject for the following week so I mentioned that I had a collection of ergo boards that might be of at least some interest. Here's how it turned out... Had some nice comments, and someone suggested doing it again during litfest l...

Sadly, the Simon Andrews memorial lap, dedicated to the riders who have lost their lives to the races, had to be cancelled due to a crash before the roads were closed for it.

Any smaller than the frogpad, you'll end up with something like the gkos.

Have you considered using the mouse with your other hand. It's a pretty cheap change, takes a while to get used to it, but it could give you some flexibility if your symptoms change in the future. I'd suggested trying as many boards as you can, which might not be easy. The more the change, the easie...

That's a beautiful board. I want to say something really nice about the keyboard and I know it cost you a chunk or two out of your hand, but it's clearly the result of a work of love, passion, vision... but every time I re-write it, it sounds like I'm trying to say that it was worth sacrificing your...

Re: What is the oldest keyboard in your collection?
I used my zx81 enough to put a dent in the shift key. I gave that one to a friend when I was still at school, but I picked up another 81 about 10 years ago. So, that's my oldest at the moment.

A few keyboards to take a look at - Kinesis Advantage Kinesis Freestyle Goldtouch. Since you've just ordered a keyboardio, I can understand that you'd be reluctant to spend out again on a keyboard. I've gone through several goldtouches (given them away) that I've either bought new or from ebay. The ...
