Keyboard Suggestion?

[bhanson]

Hello,

I am in the search for a new keyboard, it's just about time I retire this old micron. The problem I face is, I prefer to type in DVORAK. Now while I am a touch typist I do prefer to have my keyboard be an actual DVORAK layout. With the current keyboard I have, I just rearranged the keys, however, I can't move all of them. The clips on the F,C,Y, and J are turned 90 degrees. I had fixed this by putting tape over them, I don't want to do that this time. The keys in DVORAK would be U,J,F, and H respectively.

I was wondering if any of you knew of any keyboards that didn't do this.

Some other things I'd like the keyboard to have:

[*]Be black in color
[*]Be USB
[*]US style layout
[*]STANDARD layout, this is important. I want it to be full sized and have normal keys. The backspace should be full sized as well as the shift buttons.

If someone could shed some light on this that would be great.

Thanks

I found an image of my keyboard that I took about a year and a half ago, maybe it will help aide my description.

The keys with the paper over them cannot be placed into their proper places due to the way the backs of the keys are made. If anyone could look at their keyboard, and pop off two keys to see if they're the same or not, that would be great. Two easy keys to check this on would be d and f.

I don't want to try the trial and error method for this, the last thing I need is 20 keyboards that I have no use for.

That really does not help, I've already searched the web for major DVORAK keyboards suppliers. None of them are what I want, they're all mostly really expensive, or really ugly. 70% of the results from that froogle search were not even for keyboards, heh.

It would be really hard for me to believe that there is not a keyboard out there that would work for me. Maybe if there isn't I'll have to settle for a blank keyboard.

Can anyone check the D and F keys?
