Most likely she would have had to disconnect the malfunctioning keybaord. If she disconnected it and reconnected it, that might solve the problem, dontcha think?
Maybe she is using 2 different computers entirely?

If you use a standard keyboard you can buy an old IBM model M keyboard on ebay or clickykeyboards.co
That key printing never wear down because the letters are part of the key itself. They just don't make them that way anymore because it is too expensive to make. Some of the mechanical keyboards like Cherry have what they double shot key imprinting and the letters are part of the key itself and don't wear off. That IBM keyboard is very noisy from the type of keyswitch it has so you may not like that. Logitech and Belkin make some membrane switch keyboards that are supposed to have longer lasting key imprints. I have a logitech that has the longer lasting key imprints and it is pretty good. You have to look on the specs to find out if has the longer lasting key printing.
I have experimented so much with keyboards and have done a lot of research. Way too much info.
I use a laptop with a full-size keyboard (no separate keyboard)
I'm using a lap desk but previously was using a pillow with a book on it under the laptop. No additional keyboard though, I bought one with a full-sized board with regular size keys (an HP) which I LOVE and it took no time at all to get used to it. I also love that when the weather improves, I can take my computer outside and get some fresh air! What a great job... :)
Keyboard and mouse. Is there such a thing as a keyboard that has a mouse on the actual keyboard?

Kinesis Keyboard and keyboard tray
Okay, any lefties use this keyboard? How long did it take to get used to? I use my left thumb for the space bar and I notice on a diagram of the keys that I would always be hitting the backspace key.
I'm really interested in getting a better keyboard. I destroyed my left hand and wrist the other week when I fell because I'm becoming a real klutz.
I bought the Soft Flex gloves, but they only help a little bit. My production is down because of it and it's driving me crazy. I can only type an hour without stopping and then have to rest the hand for some time.
I did buy a Microsoft 2000 keyboard but have yet to recieve it. Is this a good one?
Do you use a keyboard tray with it or just set it on the desk? Do you think a kayboard tray would be the least expensive item right now that would help with a straight keyboard?
Any info you can provide to help me in making any decision would be greatfully appreciated.
'Scuse me for being old school, but I've only ever used a straight keyboard.
Does anyone know of a keyboard that has the backspace key in the center of the keyboard? NM

Split keyboard mounted on chair arms versus split keyboard on desk
For longtime comfort which is best - split keyboard mounted on chair arms or split keyboard to be used on the desk?
Also, why the preference over split keyboards that come totally apart versus split keyboards that are permanently connected at the top?
I want to revamp my office and there are so many different options. 
Gold touch makes a keyboard without number pad. Also the evoluent keyboard has the number pad on th
It is a very small keyboard and has laptop keys which are very quiet and light to the touch. Almost no noise.

Ignore my post. I finally found the post on how to do this. nm

Yes, I tried to post same last night about 10 times, and it won't let me post.
I used to breed lab puppies (please no activist flames)! I had a champion female white Canadian lab, and people would be on a list for years if by chance I bred her, which I did twice, and so that I could continue her line. Anyhow, she's my sweet Skye who passed away 2 months ago? At any rate, we had the same problems with kids in the "hood" who wanted to come over and play once the puppies were old enough to be exercised daily and played with. At first I thought, how cute, right? Puppies and little kids - what better picture! Well, the majority of kids were adorable, but there were always 1 or 2 sick ones who would smack the pups, smash and hold their heads in the dirt (a real common thing, but I don't know why - psychiatrist anyone). At any rate, I finally had to ban the whole group due to the 1 or 2 creeps, had to call the police, the whole 9 yards, and that's EXACTLY what the police officer told me - next thing is there will be poison meat or a donut in the yard. He told me to always go out and patrol my yard, especially alone the fence line every day before I let the dogs out, particularly at night. I went out with a flashlight. It was about a month later, but sure enough - poison meat. Because there were so many kids involved, we obviously couldn't pin point the exact family, but the police went and read the riot act to them all. It would stop and not happen again for a year or so, but every now and again we would find something. My dogs were NEVER out and barking, so it was nothing like that - it was just over the puppies and the cruel kids.... Not trying to freak you, but that's the way these kids and their families are. You can really judge someone's character by ill treatment of a PUPPY, of all things. And the parents?? They sound whacked. Please be careful.

Yes, she had post partum depression AND post partum psychosis. I posted on this a while back, and
it explained the two. The psychosis actually develops after the depression. Scary stuff.

Keyboard
I'm in the same boat. My PC Concepts had the integrated touch mouse on the keyboard. PC Concepts no longer makes this in the English version. It was the best ergo KB I have ever used. I bought a Micro Innovations keyboard to replace it after much searching and this keyboard is a PIECE OF GARBAGE!
The touch buttons for the mouse are on either side, rather than below and it's very akward to use the mouse.
Not to mention the fact that their "ergonomic design" is one of a thumbs down with the "gentle curve" going inward rather than out.
Just DO NOT waste your money on a Micro Innovations keyboard.
By the way. I sent an email BEGGING PC-Concepts to bring back the English version. Never heard anything from them.
I did order another keyboard from them tho. Should be here hopefully today. The only difference is that the integrated finger mouse is detached on a little pad. I figure I can glue it to the keyboard and give that a try.
Will let you know how it works out and if I find a secret stash of the old PC-iMMT keyboards anywhere.
Keyboard
Try E-Bay for different ergonomic keyboards. Quite often I have seen keyboards with the touchpad bottom center. You can also get touchpads just by themselves, that you can position any place you want. I got my Goldtouch keyboard off E-Bay and I love it. I tried using my old flat keyboard again and hated it.
keyboard
I go through at least one if not two keyboards a year because I wear the letters off. Though I don't need them it is weird to type without them. This last one was expensive and so am trying to get 15 months out of it. Never spilled anything on it, just wear out the keys.
keyboard
I would also suggest not wahing an ergonic keyboard. When I got just one little drop of water underneath the keys, it shorted out the keyboard. All I could get after that was jumbled characters.
911 keyboard wet
I spilled pepsi on kb last night. I have used ergo kb for over 10 years. I am trying to type this on regular kb, not doing too good. My backspace on ergo was affected. I don't have money to get new keyboard because I recently went to work for company that puts up good posts but steals lines. How do I fix KB. Any help appreciated.
Keyboard
You can try seeing if the keys will pop off that are giving you trouble and then use a Q-Tip and alcohol to clean the keys and the area where you spilled the drink. That may work.
keyboard
If neither one works then you are not getting a reading or connected via the received. Have you pushed the "connect" button on both? Are by accident using rechargable batteries? Are the batteries good? I have a rechargable Logitech now and thinking back to my one that wasn't to remember how it works. Sometimes you have to move the receiver around a bit so that it can receive the connection as that is how it works. Are you sure you are plugged into the correct port on the back of your computer. I am sure you have checked all of this but just going over in my mind what I would check Again, you have to sometimes push the connect button simultaneously on the keyboard and the connection base station. But move the base station around, recheck the batteries and that is all I can say. I could not type a couple of time but moving my base made it possible. GO onto Logitech and check out their site for help also.
Good luck - Patti
Keyboard
Yeah me too...but now that I contract I never stop typing and I usually spill something on my keyboard before it gets that old anymore! Do they have a keyboard with straps like a hotdog vendor? Now that is something I'd be interested in.
new keyboard
Thanks for answering. I am
contacting clickykeyboards, because it sounds like the IBM M is the one I want. I have never done well with the ergonomic keyboards.
Thanks again.
I'd get the keyboard and get rid of the DH. but thats just me.

Who was looking for the NMB keyboard
I found one in my pile of old computer stuff that I'm sorting through. It sams NMB The Right Touch and it is a heavy keyboard with a big round plug-in, not USB or PS2.
I left e-mail address, if you want it let me know and you can have it for postage.
Just go and buy the keyboard...
They are about $30. I've got one and haven't had a problem since. Get rid of the husband. If he has time to go stay with Dad for hours at a time..... he has time to get a part-time job!! I can't believe you put up with that crap. Grrrrrr -- some women really tick me off when they let men walk all over them. They have no backbone!! I feel sorry for the kids. They have horrible role models whether it's mother or father!
Jan, I would like to know exactly which keyboard
I have a totally split one very much like the one you describe (a PerfecTouch or Ergo 2000), but this one is wearing out again, and I think I'll go for another brand of split next time. The Kinesis Maxim you showed doesn't seem to split totally apart as you described yours doing, though? (Mine can separate up to 14 inches apart, so I can also put a notepad or whole sheet of regular paper, etc., between the halves of mine.)
keyboard
I'm in Illinois. Where are YOU? :)
keyboard
Mine is a Lexmark, one of the very first totally split keyboards with totally separate sides. I really need a new one, though, as the keys are wearing out. I'll have to look at the Maxim again. I thought it came apart; guess not, huh? I'd want mine to come apart, like my own and like yours (SM). Then let's look at the Goldtouch. I believe it comes apart. There is a really new one called (I think) Safetype, too. The two halves actually stand up vertically, instead of being flat on the desk. I'm not sure I could get used to THAT much of a change, but it does seem to prevent wrist injuries.
keyboard
I believe mine came already programmed with the left space bar as the backspace. But it's been ten years, so I can't swear to it. Believe me, if it had to be programmed by me, and I accomplished it, then it can't be too difficult...hee-hee!
keyboard
Ha! What a nut I am! I wondered "why does she want to know where I am?"  Go to: www.comfortkeyboard.com. There are three models, but a lot more expensive than Goldtouch or Maxim. I think they're worth it, though, as they do come totally apart. What d'ya think?
