ErgoLogic information about their keyboard:
The Ergologic Model 7.1 is the only ergonomic keyboard which adjusts quickly and easily
to the way people work and to the positions that people find comfortable. Some of the most
significant features of the Ergologic Model 7.1 Keyboard include:
Adjustable split keyboard --- allows the keyboard to be used in the ordinary, flat
position (for PC s which might be shared by many users). With the turn of the knob, the
computer user can quickly raise the keyboard halves, allowing reduction of the unnatural
"twist" (ulnar abduction) of the wrists and the tiring rotation (pronation) of
the forearms often associated with work at a conventional, flat keyboard.
The HYPERSPACE BAR(tm) in addition to providing the usual spacebar action, also puts
the frequently used "Backspace" and "Return" functions under your
thumbs.
Removable, one-touch adjustable hand rests are ergonomically engineered to support your
hands and forearms.
The adjustment indicator --- in just seconds gives every user easy, and reliable, setup
and reset.
Both PC and Apple Macintosh interfaces are available to provide keyboard comfort with
the computers that corporations use most. Connections to other common workstations will be
available soon; call, toll-free, for the latest information!
Comments
The FlexPro keyboard was Key Tronic's version of this product and they
have quit this product line.
The ErgoLogic keyboard is much like a standard 101 keyboard when its alphanumeric key
sections are flat. The Function Keys are grouped at the left of the keyboard, like the old
XT keyboards. The keys split and angle by a knob on the side of the keyboard. The
horizontal split and veritical tenting are linked together and looks somewhat like a
drawbridge being raised. This keyboard has several good features and is a relatively
inexpensive option as compared to the Comfort
A couple of down sides . . . the palm rests provided are not frequently used and the
left and right hand key surfaces do not become stable until the keys reach a considerable
vertical angle (it would have been nice for more stability throughout the whole adjustment
range).
