IBM Keyboard / Mouse cable 6 pin mini-DIN (PS/2 style)

Advantages: shortcut buttons, stops pain
Disadvantages: hard to use at first

...I had been suffering pain from typing on a regular QWERTY keyboard for sometime.

Appearance = The first and most obvous thing you will notice is that this keyboard is split into two specific halfs. The second thing is the blue. It makes the keyboard look stylish and you can coordinate it in with the blue Microsoft Optical Mouse. There is also a row of "Hot Keys" at the top of the keyboard that are used as shortcuts to using the computer.

...is pretty low (or if you’re USB ports are full). So what Kensington have done is provided a converter for the mouse’s USB connection.
