Microsoft Natural Ergonomic Keyboard 4000

Macだとホットキー、マルチメディアキーのドライバーが、Yosemiteに対応しておりませんが、（かなり前から使えない）ControllerMateという有料アプリケーションで、自由に割り当てが可能です。ズームスライダーは大きなディスプレイをお使いであれば、とてもズームが楽で、ブラウザーから様々なアプリケーションまで拡大・拡小が可能です。パームレストもポイントで、慣れると快適ですね。 有線ですが、Macのキーボードは選択肢も少ないので、好みもありますがオススメです。 現在、OSX El Capitanで使用しています。

I have used the same keyboard for 10 years at work. My first one is 10 years old and still works like a dream. It is just super old and stuff started rubbing off and getting overall worn down. It still works completely fine, but I bought a new one for work and am bringing my 10 year old one home for retirement. She deserves it honestly. Maybe the best keyboard ever made for someone who sits at a desk for a living. I have a mechanical gaming keyboard at home (Razer Blackwider) mainly for gaming, but I'll end up giving this a try for gaming someday and see how it goes.

Elegí este teclado porque soy Software Tester y parte de mi trabajo es estar mínimo 8 horas al día en un PC. Estaba acostumbrado a laptops sin embargo ahora estoy trabajando con un desktop y apenas luego de un mes de estar trabajando con un teclado estándar comencé a presentar molestias en las muñecas. Con este teclado inmediatamente desaparecieron las molestias. Cuesta un poco acostumbrarse al principio por la distribución física si nunca has trabajando con un teclado de estos, pero luego de unos días se hace muy natural y cómodo. La posición de las manos queda perfecta, las teclas son muy suaves y muy silenciosas. Tiene teclas de acceso directo muy útiles sobre todo si eres Developer, SQA o informático en general. Consejo 1: - Día 1 a Día 5: Utiliza el teclado sin la base de plástico que trae y con las "patas traseras" levantadas, en esta posición se asemeja mucho a los teclados estándares. Con esta posición te acostumbras a la distribución física. - Día 6 a Día 10: Utiliza el teclado sin la base de plástico y con la "patas traseras" guardadas para que ya vayas relajando la posición de las manos. - Día 11 en adelante: Coloca el soporte plástico bajo el teclado, de esta forma las manos adoptan la forma natural y las molestias desaparecen y podrás escribir mas rápido y sin siquiera ver el teclado. Consejo 2: No temas comprar un teclado en inglés, es fácil configurarlo para usar todas las teclas de forma correcta para escribir en español, es decir: acentos, la Ñ, etc, etc. Para configurar basta con ir a los ajustes del idioma de entrada del Sistema Operativo que usen, en mi caso Windows; seleccionan como idioma de entrada: "Inglés Internacional", con esto cada tecla funciona como debe ser. Para los acentos presionan ' y luego la vocal y para la ñ/Ñ presionan "~" y luego "n/N".

Many years ago I started having the signs and symptoms of Carpal Tunnel (repetitive stress injury) syndrome in my right wrist, because I spent (and still spend) a lot of time every day on a computer keyboard. At the time I worked for a pharmaceutical manufacturer, and when I mentioned my problem of stiffness & soreness in my wrist to my manager, I was sent to the plant's industrial engineer. He scheduled an ergonomic study of my desk, including the chair, mouse, keyboard, and typing position - hands, wrists, arms, torso, legs and feet, and observed my habits. From that study came his recommendation for me to adjust the arms on my office chair a specific way to support them while I typed, plus to acquire a trackball and an ergonomic keyboard (that the Company paid for!) - the type this is - to eliminate the problem of the angled wrist position during touch typing - either side-to-side or up and down, to keep my wrists straight and level, eliminating the cause of Carpal Tunnel in this context (note: your experience may vary; this is not a medical recommendation). When I first got the keyboard it took a couple days to get used to it but once I did, and while wearing a wrist brace to help the hand/arm position training, my symptoms subsided very quickly. Now, over a decade later I have never been without an ergonomic keyboard (that my Company pays for!) and I also have never had a recurrence of symptoms, unless of course I wind up having to use a regular keyboard for any length of time in my job in I.T. in which case it takes less than a day for me to feel the impact of using the standard keyboard and having to compromise proper typing position. I cannot survive without my ergonomic keyboard! This one was purchased to backup a well worn identical model at home, as I never use a standard keyboard here either but noticed the supply growing smaller, and the price offered was too good to pass up. My fear is that manufacturers will stop producing them due to low demand, and yet we hear all the time about hand surgery centers who deal with Carpal Tunnel. Insurance pays tens of millions for treatment after the fact, and yet often I have had to push to get approval for a $40 keyboard and a $25 trackball from Company expense money, to prevent the issue in the first place! Makes no sense but that's how my experience has been. It certainly would be far cheaper and less intrusive just to treat the problem at its source; namely, bad posture while typing, instead of shelling out all the money to operate once the Syndrome has taken its toll on the wrist joint. Meanwhile, the Microsoft Ergonomic Keyboard, one of the few remaining on the market, is the ideally-suited keyboard to help curb the issues which can cause a repetitive stress injury in the hand or wrist, and it is of such good quality that it lasts and lasts. It is like any other piece of molded plastic, however, in that it is subject to wear and tear, dust and debris, but with a little maintenance even stuck keys can be fixed easily. I've used my previous unit so much I have actually worn the letters off the keys, but for a touch typist that does not matter as we don't have to look at the keys to type. The keyboard also helps keep pests (my family) off my computer because they, not being used to the split design of an ergonomic keyboard, detest using this one so they avoid my computer when they can, and complain whenever they must use it for a moment. Indeed, also because the letters are worn off, they struggle to find the right keys to press since the keys are not located in the standard position and that largely keeps anyone else away from borrowing Dad's computer to do anything. The ideal situation for me! I really never have understood why this design would not become standard on all computers and keyboards, given all we know about what causes Carpal Tunnel when a person is on a keyboard 8 to 10 hours a day, 5 or 6 days a week but alas, it has not been a high volume seller, I would imagine. Not everyone has been as fortunate as I was to actually have an engineer evaluate the root cause of my impending problem with a mind toward prevention instead of treatment after the fact - an investment which saved that company tens or hundreds of thousands of worker's compensation claims, I'm sure, and one which is actually very smart business. I took that information forward into my subsequent job and have continued to negotiate a $60 expense investment to prevent a much more expensive worker's comp situation due to bad ergonomics in the work place. Good product, worth the money, and even for a non-touch typist it helps keep the typing position straight and level so that the wrist does not become inflamed and cause joint injury. At this price, a great value! I bought a spare to back up my well-worn keyboard just in case they go off the market. By the time this one truly wears completely out at least I'll have a reserve unit to fall back on.
