    Got some old piece of shit and it's bad on my wrists. Don't need it for gaming, just working (lots of typing). What keyboards can you guys recommend?
    Thanks.

    If you just want a basic model, then the 'Genius Comfy' range are great keyboards, we have used them in some we have supplied.

    Otherwise go for one of the Microsoft ones, they are all decent quality, and not too expensive either.

    This keyboard has a gel pad for your wrist, you can also search ergonomic keyboards and find a lot of different keyboards made for comfort

    While your at it I highly recommend logitechs rollerball mouse - I could only work on the computer for a couple hours at a time without my wrists killing me until I started using this mouse, now I can stay on it all day and they don't hurt one bit, this mouse is awesome.

    eBay would take time to deliver, I wonder if the thread starter can wait till then.

    Keyboards are such essential ingedients in our lives :-p

    Logitech keyboards are great! May cost a bit more but you are sure it's good quality.
