Best Keyboard Possible

Date of Review:  Sep 27, 2006
The Bottom Line: I would recommend this keyboard above any others. Great for work and play. Extremely comfortable and very durable.
Review: I'm pretty picky about my keyboards and have gone through quite a few. However, I've had this keyboard for a few years now and keep coming back to it.

For me, it's got the right feel. The comfort is perfect. That being said, it certainly...

Buy Something Else

Date of Review:  Feb 1, 2008
The Bottom Line: Pass it by and get something else. It's just too freakin hard to use.
Review: My old Microsoft Ergonomic Keyboard finally died after several years of service. The R and E no long work reliably. Since those are two of the most common letter in the alphabet, I asked for a new version of my old faithful keyboard. I really liked...

If you're looking for an Ergonomic keyboard, this product is a good choice.

Date of Review:  Mar 11, 2006
The Bottom Line: A great candidate for those shopping ergonomic keyboards. It won't win over converts from people currently using 101-key layouts, but it's still a good keyboard for Windows XP.

An ergonomic replacement to the conventional keyboard

Date of Review:  Dec 15, 2006
Review: This is the first time I have bought a Microsoft Natural keyboard. I needed to find an ergonomic replacement for the conventional keyboard because I am feeling pain in my wrists from everyday computer work.

The shape of the keyboard is...

Best keyboard I've used to date

Date of Review:  Jan 11, 2007
The Bottom Line: Great keyboard!
Review: I work in the software industry and as such I spend 50+ hours each week on my computer and I also purchase and use a wide variety of Windows related hardware and software. Years ago I purchased a Microsoft Elite Natural Keyboard when they were first...

A decent ergonomic keyboard

Date of Review:  Dec 29, 2007
The Bottom Line: I would recommend it only if alternative brands/models proved worse.
Review: I bought this keyboard to help alleviate chronic back, hand, and wrist pain. I have two of this keyboard, one at home and one at work. I type 10+ hours a day, every day. I have used at least 6 different keyboards on a regular basis, but this was my...

Very Nice Keyboard - Easy On the Wrists

Date of Review:  Dec 22, 2005
The Bottom Line: Great ergonomic, multi-function keyboard. I recommend getting used to the ergonomic designs to help avoid repetitive stress injuries.
Review: I purchased this keyboard a few weeks ago for my work PC. It replaced an older Microsoft Ergonomic Keyboard. The ergonomic keyboards do take a little bit of getting used to, but once you do, it's difficult to go back to a standard keyboard. I've...

Had two, both failed the same way, probably won't get another

Date of Review:  Aug 19, 2009
The Bottom Line: Split keyboard, one of the few still sold.  Switches apparently not the best quality, you may get about 18 months of service with a few hours per day usage.
Review: I also like the natural key layout, I believe it's easier on the hands.  I've had two of these in the last couple of years, they're fine while they last but when the keys start to drop out all you can do is toss it.  Fortunately one of my favorite...

The (Almost) Perfect Ergonomic Keyboard From Microsoft

Date of Review:  Dec 11, 2009
The Bottom Line: Overall, I would state the Microsoft has designed a good, solid, useful, ergonomic keyboard with a lot to recommend it in the Natural Ergonomic Keyboard 4000.
Review: Let's face it there is nothing sexy or even new about keyboard design, expect for the rise of backlit units.  But the keyboard is one of the most essential parts of the computer; after all, without one the computer is close to useless.

I...

Microsoft 4000 Computer Keyboard. Does it work with a Mac?

Date of Review:  Dec 22, 2009
The Bottom Line: A good option for those on a Mac that like the PC keyboard format.
Review: I bought this in conjunction with my Mac Mini because my old wireless USB keyboard did not work with my Mac Mini. This board I am reviewing is also one of the few third party boards that does work with the Mac Mini. My other option available at the...
