Incase bought a dead end. I don’t understand the love for these classic products outside of nostalgia and habit.<p>The peripherals market made massive strides since these were in their heyday. These were solid mid-range options years ago but they’re just not competitive anymore.<p>For the same price as the Microsoft Ergonomic Keyboard you can buy a split ergonomic keyboard with real mechanical switches. You even get multiple switch choices.<p>Microsoft had a respectable product line but the market has caught up and surpassed it.<p>This reminds me of those Unicomp IBM keyboards. I bought one, thought it was great at the time, but later on bought a more modern-design mechanical keyboard. In comparison the Unicomp keyboard was so clearly an inferior nostalgia product: louder, heavier (in a bad way), and worse key feel and travel than the vast array of switches available on the market today.
