Microsoft Natural Ergonomic Keyboard 4000

Although you can spend much more on an ergonomic keyboard, the Microsoft Natural Ergonomic Keyboard 4000 is easier to use than most, with a familiar layout that's tweaked to decrease hand and wrist stress. The unique curve of the keyboard encourages users to hold their hands in a more comfortable and ergonomically correct position, and the traditional key layout helps minimize the learning curve. It's also hailed as a bargain, something unusual in keyboard reviews, which typically complain about the high price of top-performing models. In addition to the ergonomic design, the 4000 also includes useful convenience features, such as a zoom option.
