While I think it would be extremely great to have a BSD logo on my
keyboard...
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. :-)
