To go off on a total tangent, in spite of the fact that they have a Windows logo on them, I've found the Microsoft Natural Keyboard an exceptionally indispensible thing to have. After using one of these for about a year, I can't hardly type on a "normal" keyboard anymore -- every time I try it seems like I'm practically jamming my hands together and tilting my wrists at really weird angles -- they're just too "unnatural"! (I am a "touch-typist".) My S.O. was getting lots of wrist pain too. She types only on these keyboards now also, and has a lot less problems with her wrists. I don't mean this to sound like one of those cheesy commercial mailings. I just want to let folks know that these things actually work really well. Very highly recommended. And you can even paste a little Chuck over the Windows logo if you want. :-) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Michael L.
