KingRat - there are two reasons for my typos. First is that due to a catastorphic fracture of my left arm some years ago - nine surgeries and it still never healed quite right - left me with some lingering nerve damage. I have control issues with my fingers and sometimes hit the adjacent key or a tremor causes a doubble strike on a key. Second is that my old computer died over the summer and its replacement has a more cramped keyboard.
This really sucks, considering I used to type for a living.
runar: I had noticed the occasional typo in your comments (now that I know about your arm and what I remember of them they are mostly left hand) it was just that you had the same error of hitting the key to the left of what you where looking for.
As far as the keyboard is concerned I have an octave and a half hand spread (on piano) and have a hard time using most keyboards. I have been looking into getting either the Das Keyboard Professional or the Matias Tactile Pro Keyboard.

hey runar are you moving farther to the left? that’s the second or third time you’ve hit s instead of d in two days.

DrToon I don’t want to alarm you but a step from the right is not necessarily a step to the left. I along with others hope that it is a step forward.
