Yeh Mine replaced the original MS Natural. From what I've read it probablly wont last as long but my Natural keyboard must be at least 8 years old.
I love it but I have to get it working with the PS2 connection :-( -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Greg Sevart Sent: Saturday, February 25, 2006 2:33 PM To: The Hardware List Subject: Re: [H] USB - PS2 convertor and Microsoft Ergo 4000 Don't know why it won't work in PS2, but I bought a Ergo 4000 a while back for my home machine. I like it quite a bit--I was avoiding all MS keyboards since the original MS Natural, but I finally found one that I think is a replacement for it. The only real downside for me was that it is different enough to make going between it and even another MS Natural (pre-4000) difficult. To that end, I decided to make my input devices the same for both my home machines and work machine. Now both have Ergo 4000's with MX1000 mice. :) My only real concern now is that I very much doubt that it will last nearly as long as those old MS Naturals did, but oh well.
