Hey there. Im a bit at a loss when it comes to choosing a keyboard.

I have limited space on my desk and i just board the razor death adder (which my parents wernt to chuffed about the price). I dont think i can justify the cost of the G15 or G11 when i don@t play wow and dont need any macro keys. And i beleive it would be to wide anyway for the limited space.

I have a normal logitech keyboard and the moment and the keys are starting to stop working (as you may notice in my typing as ive already had to go through this multiple times for spelling errors due to keys not working!).

I dont think i could get used to the boards with the keys at angles to be more "ergonomic" because im a very fast speed typer and the way its angled would throw me off my ways to much. Plus they seem to split it betwen T and Y and i hit Y with my left hand not right hand so it would be a bit of a pain!

What im looking for is:

1)A good quality and reliable feel to the keys.
2) No bigger then a normal keyboard- so this means i cant have extra macro keys down the side like the G11 and 15.
3) Not to expensive as i dont need anything flashy. But up to £30ish id be happy with if it was for quality.


This appears to limit my choise on ocuk to very few keyboards. So if there are any others which arnt sold here just give me the name and i shall find them.


Thanks :)
 
Although it would strain your budget, and goes against your wish to not have the T and Y separated, the Microsoft Natural Ergonomic 4000 is meant to be an absolute dream to use. You also do a dis-service to yourself by saying you wouldn't be able to adapt.

I've got a comfort curve 2000 myself and while not bad as such, the keys just don't have a very good feel to them (it's fairly hard to judge if you've completed a keypress properly).
 
I can afford higher then a £30 quid keyboard and if it was needed i would pay more. Just thought if your paying over £30 it probably comes with something i dont need lol.

I did look at that ergo 4000. But i think i would find it hard trying to type with it as id have to get out of a strong habbit. I can type somthing out fast while looking at someone else and having a convo with them lol. Dont think it would be too easy :P

Are they really that much more comfortable over standard parralell keybaords? I noticed all the gaming ones appear to be parralell
