I've always been a fan of the Microsoft keyboards. Now it looks like they went more for looks than functionality. I'm currently using a Microsoft 6000[^] keyboard with a slight ergo curve to it. I love it, but they don't make it anymore. Anyone have any suggestions on their fave keyboard? I've only had experience with Logitech and Microsoft and I'm not seeing any of their current products that I like. I'm looking for something that's ergonomic, but not full on split keyboard ergonomic, and reasonably sized. Wireless and a reasonable cost are the only two other criteria.

Is your current keyboard broken?

I have some keys that are starting to be less than reliable. I'm expecting failure in the near future.

How about this keyboard:

Bit too ergonomic, lol. I bet once you got used to that thing it would be great.

Takes some getting use to. I would have liked it if they had kept the control keys in their original locations. It could be worse. I have known people to use the dvorak layout ()[^].

Unless someone twists your arm, stay away from the Logitech K800. It's rechargeable, which is nice, but it attracts hand oil/dirt like crazy. The keys look pitiful.

I'm using a Maxdata Cherry RS 6000 M.
The back says it's build for Win 95, but it still works on Win 7
It's about 20 years old and they don't make (them like) these anymore.
Good luck finding a keyboard that lasts for 20 years of heavy use!
Not even the letters on the keys have faded!
Unfortunately, they don't make computers with PS2 connectors anymore either, so I'll probably buy a new keyboard with my next computer

|
They still make adapters for ps2->usb.
|
|
|
|
|
If you're prepared to roll your own, then PS2 connectors are readily available on motherboards. I just checked a random selection of ASUS, MSI and Gigabyte boards, and all had PS2 ports available.
And of course there's the USB to PS2 adapters. No idea how well they work.

What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

I just even noticed you changed it in the title. Subtle.

It was me. I don't have any of those substitution extensions installed.

The 4000[^] is still available at some places. Check the Logitech ones, some are very good as well.
If you are after the "crème de la crème", I'd go for Das Keyboard[^]

Actually, still available.[^]

I paid around $50 for the one that I have and now they want close to $200. Kinda shows that if you just made a good, normalish keyboard that the market is out there for it.

I love the Das Keyboard.

There's no way I can think of that could explain this oddly-shaped keyboard to anyone asking.

If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
Everything makes sense in someone's mind.
Ya can't fix stupid.

Isn't that just a regular AZERTY keyboard?
