Anyone have one? I am using one at work now. It actually is easier for me. It sounds nuts and I never thought I would be able to use one.

I can not use the ergo crap keyboards that are split in half.
WHY?
I type non standard. I hit space with my left thumb(rebel) and hit the Y key with my left hand instead of right. I am right handed but for some reason i still reach for more keys with my left hand. I can still type pretty fast tho. I just make a decent amount of errors and my grammer/spelling is horrible .

I use a split and i use boths thumbs to press the space bar, depends on which hand is closer at the time.
Sometimes I hit it with both.

I love using split keyboards. I'll set my left hand to a great bass tone, and my right to an organ. Sounds like The Doors!

I remember in my freshman year of highschool not getting perfects on my typing stuff because i would refuse to hit the spacebar with the right hand. That teacher was probably a bitch tho. We did our typing tests in word for dos. Or whatever other microsoft typing program was called, i cant remember now.

I have an ergonomic keyboard. Instead of it being split, the n, b, g, h buttons are enlarged

I'm still trying to get used to it.
Edit: there's a smaller pic

I have 2 space bars so it does not really matter. But when I am using a regular keyboard I use my right thumb to hit the space bar.

i've never really liked those keyboards. actually i've become most used to a laptop keyboard, that is a bit smaller than a normal one. if forced to use a split keyboard, it usually takes me a day or two, but then i get used to it

Keyboards? Ha! My computer is hooked directly into the communication center in my brain and everything I think is automatically transcribed onto the computer screen!
