[comp.sys.ibm.pc] Oversize Keyboard?

harper@oravax.UUCP (Douglas Harper) (01/03/90)

My fingers are too large for me to be comfortable using a standard
keyboard -- I often hit two keys at once.  I can't be the only person
in the world with this problem, so maybe some company sells a keyboard
with larger than average keys or else average-sized keys set farther
apart.  Does anyone out there know of anything like this?

Yes.  I use a keyboard called the "Business Keyboard" from Enigma Research.
It's closer to a full-size typewriter keyboard and has 48 function keys
broken out across the top.  (It's big.)  I bought it because I'm a fast
typist and can't handle these little keyboards, either.  But it's 
expensive--$350.
