Would you buy this

[zapsyou]

Thought I would share cause it's pretty hilarious. Would anyone seriously consider buying this?

I remember a picture of GabeN using something like this while his AMA.

If I wanted something different to a normal keyboard I'd just get an Orbweaver. They're pretty cool.

[Real_nimr0d_3]

Hell no

[AlwaysFSX]

I always found those stupid as hell.

An Orbweaver isn't a keyboard though.

These have been around forever. I have no idea why but someone out there must be buying a whole lot of these in order for these to exist.

[SirRoderick]

Never quite got people's logic behind these things.

 

"oh but it keeps your wrists at a more natural angle!"

 

Wrists are some of, if not the most flexible joints in the human body, they are fine.

I've tried out the mouse yesterday in store and it was pretty ergonomic lol

[flibberdipper]

Definitely not.

[techswede]

If i had absolutely nothing else to type on.. i'd go with the on-screen keyboard over that one.. Looks horrid

[Thebman712]

my dad has a ergonomic keyboard and i cant even use it its so weird

Close enough . 

What about the Tartarus? I think that's what I was thinking about.

I would consider it if I needed an ergonomic keyboard/mouse for typing tons of stuff and general office use. You have to remember not every peripheral is made for gaming.

Thanks you. Throw a track point in the middle and a embedded number pad and youve got me sold. Well that and make it mechanical and possibly matrix layout instead of staggered. Now that I think about it thats basically the ergodox, minus the trackpoint.

[Heisenbleurgh]

I'd buy a mechanical ergonomic if they weren't insanely priced.

[LogicalDrm]

My brother has one of those ergonomic things. They aren't that bad. And I would be happy to get that numpad by itself. Its 100x better than any other I've seen being sold.

[peaking duck]

i grew up on natural keyboards.

nothing wrong with them.. it was hard to go back to a normal straight one.

i have customers that only use such keyboards due to RSI issues.

they have their purpose.

and theres a market for everything.
