The Mouse-Friendly Keyboard

The general layout of the standard keyboard was designed before the introduction of the mouse. Since number entry was one of the primary functions of the keyboard at that time, having the numeric keypad on the right side made sense. Nowadays, most users use the mouse far more than the numeric keypad, so the keypad now occupies the space where the mouse should be. The Mouse-Friendly Keyboard has a more sensible layout with the numeric keypad on the left so your mouse may be much closer on the right. 

1.An ordinary keyboard has a numeric keypad where the mouse should be. Your mouse is too far away. 2. The Mouse-Friendly Keyboard has a numeric keypad on the left. Your mouse may be much closer on the right. 3. An ordinary keyboard forces your arm to stretch outward to reach the mouse. 4.The Evoluent Mouse-Friendly Keyboard allows your mouse to be directly in front of your shoulder. Your arm is in a relaxed neutral position when using the mouse.
