Title: Hi and a couple questions
Post by: palmtrees on Wed, 26 June 2013, 21:12:17

Hi,

I have ergonomic issues (tension headaches) which are driving me to search high and low for a truly split keyboard like the kinesis evolution (which is no longer made). I've had no luck so far and have now stumbled upon this forum.

It's a little more than I bargained for as there is quite a lot of information flying around here which is making me feel dizzy. Can anyone point me to a place where I can purchase a truly split keyboard for mac? I can tell someone on here is making them but not sure where to post.

Looking for one already made, I'm not handy with a soldiering iron.

Thanks.

Hello and welcome to GH. You can get an ergo dox. There is also a assembly service I think... on massdrop? Otherwise some very nice people  on here will do it for 20-30 $, maybe less. The ergo dox costs around 200 $.

There are others out there but the ergodox is one of the best to suit your needs.

Sheeeet, I would put together an ergodox for free, I just like building stuff.
