(If you do need a num pad, finding a Mac-friendly ergonomic keyboard will be a lot easier for you than it was for me.) That doesn’t sound like a big deal, but if you’re switching between your keyboard and mouse a lot, it could add up to pain at the end of the day. The num pad adds a lot of extra keyboard to the right of the letters, which then requires more space on my desk and forces me to move my arm that much more to reach my mouse. *I don’t use the number pad that much so I won’t buy a keyboard that has one. Ergonomic split preferred (also considered curved keyboards).Here’s what I was looking for in an ergonomic keyboard this time: I have been using some version of an ergonomic keyboard with a split or curve for the last 10+ years. The Sculpt sort of worked on my Mac, but it often loses connection and won’t work in the middle of typing, which led me to search for a new ergonomic keyboard. I’ve used the wireless Microsoft Sculpt keyboard for years on my Windows computers. Why is it so hard to find a good ergonomic keyboard for a Mac? When I switched from a Windows machine to a Macbook Pro, I did not expect this to be the most difficult part of switching systems, but somehow, it was.
