Keyboardless
I stupidly left my Kinesis at home today, after toting it home last night as I often do so that I can get a little work or play done.
Oh, boy, do I miss that thing. How do you people with mass-produced keyboards manage? My hands feel twisted inside-out already, and I’ve only been here fifteen minutes.
In the interests of full disclosure, I will admit that ordinary keyboards have one advantage over my Kinesis: you don’t have to keep your fingernails quite so short. The Kinesis angles your fingers on the keys such that if you have long fingernails, you strike keys with them instead of your finger-pads, which is a nasty jolt after a while.
That’s it, though. Other than that, the Kinesis is immeasurably superior. Cost me a bundle, but some of the best money I’ve spent this year. I know I sound like a PR flack, but I’m only speaking as I find, and I find that I am now a Kinesis fanatic.
