Thanks. I actually still have some monstrously long-lasting non-ergo kb's myself. But I passed being able to type on a non-ergo about...4-5 years ago? Cap may actually remember better than I, when I decided to go Ergo in shape...I've blown through at least 10 kb's since he was working with some of my clients.

You can see some examples of wear about half-way down the following page:

Oh, yeah. Nope, I don't need any more like that. It already looks like the Keyboard Graveyard here...where perfectly healthy keyboards go to die. Somewhere, little baby keyboards are told the scary story of the keyboard Boogeyman, and what happens to them if they aren't good little keyboards.
