I am not worried about vandals in my shop, but swarf is a major PITA, and the only keyboard I have found to be useful in that dirty environment is the logitech K360, which has keytops with vertical sides. All other keyboards have the tapered sides because some &%$#@()^ genius thinks thats cute, but all it serves to do is get a piece of swarf stuck in the wedge, holding the key down. And thats a machinery and cutting tool wrecking occurance. Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
