Ergonomic Keyboard Programming

It is the only compact ergonomic keyboard that seems to be available, that is structurally sound (without bending).

Great mechanical keyboard for programming. Works great with Linux as well.

I've been using the Microsoft Natural Ergonomic Keyboard (4000?) for years. I've found that I need to see the keys more often and thought the old keyboard quite large. While looking for low-vision keyboards I found this illuminated model. I thought I'd never adapt to or like a flat keyboard like this but I was so wrong. This is the best keyboard I've ever used. Easy strike, silent, and I can see the keys without bright room lighting -- even without my glasses! A full numbers layout, easy extra function keys, great configuration, easy setup, and a sophisticated appearance. Love it. Highly recommended for everyone at all skill levels.

Very reliable, really nice, ergonomic mouse and solid keyboard

I'm using this keyboard with Nuendo. The shortcuts are a great time saver. It's ergonomic. Highly recommend it.

I was surprised by the quality of this keyboard. I was also surprised by the ease of programming. One amazing note on my choice of this - super easy to find keys in Virtual Reality flight simulator. Exactly what I hoped for! I'm going to buy another one so both sides of my virtual cockpit are covered.

The keyboard clicks are loud, but the keys feel great and have a solid feel to them. I got this for programming on a MacBook Pro. It has quite a distinctly different feel compared to the MacBook Pro keyboard. Different, but good.

I use this keyboard to start programs, bring up websites, open documents, and to run macros and shortcut keystrokes in several programs that I frequently use. Once you start programming, it's amazing how quickly you fill up all of the keys. If the XK-128 wasn't more than double the price, I would have gotten that one. Basic key programming, which I use for 90% of the keys, is fairly easy. If you learn to edit the program scripts, which is non-trivial, you can pretty much modify any effect of the keys and/or lights that you would need.I have had to contact PI Engineering for a couple of programming glitches, and they were very responsive in helping me work through the issues.

Follows programming well.

It was quick and easy to install. It glides in and out nicely. My large, ergonomic keyboard does not fit well but I am making due. I'm not sure about the slide out mouse holder however I'm trying it out.
