You know Pete, I was watching one of those infomercials yesterday on TV and
they were advertising a keyboard with pretty big keys and the letters on the
keys were much larger. I was thinking that it might be just the thing for
me. I didn't order it or write the information down but I wonder if anyone
has seen something like this from a more "reputable" source. (You're not the
only one with fat fingers!)

Subject: [CQ-Contest] Keyboard for Contesting
I know this subject has been covered before, but the market moves so rapidly
that data more than a year old is apt to be obsolete.
Here's my problem. I just got a new Dell computer for the shack. I am a
hunt and peck typist with a high fat-finger rate. The previous keyboard had
nicely separated keytops, while the new one is much more like a laptop. As
a consequence, my error rate is way up. I can't use the old keyboard
because it was PS/2, and my KVM switch doesn't recognize it with an adapter.
What I'm looking for is recommendations for a wired or wireless USB keyboard
that has widely separated keys like an 8-year-old Dell. Please drop me a
note off the reflector, and I'll summarize the responses I get.
Thanks!
