Hey there,

I've been doing a lot of typing lately on my shitty old Compaq keyboard (it has a good build quality, but keys require relatively much force to be pressed) and I experience some discomfort in my fingers.

Would anybody suggest any specific keyboard or keyboard type that would help me ease the strain? I know absolutely nothing about keyboards lol!

Damn, this one really does look like a beast!

It reminds me of my old "gaming" Logitech keyboard that I got as a gift over a dozen years ago (probably much worse quality than yours): https://ibb.co/857R0J0

The screen and macro buttons are not necessary, but I admit that there is some appeal in that approach. I probably wouldn't buy it for myself these days, though. (:

I didn't expect that these things are so costly - I guess I'll have to do some more research tonight before making a final decision. Thanks for the reply.
