Having worked with a keyboard for
fifty years, Bill Bordass started to
develop symptoms of RSI with
conventional keyboards becoming
“increasingly uncomfortable” to use.
This was compounded by a fall
which damaged both wrists and left
him in agony after a few minutes on
his conventional flat keyboard.
After reading read a review of
ergonomic keyboards that said,
“Maltron keyboards stand head and
shoulders above the rest being not
just palliative but actually assisting
recovery”, he asked Maltron for a
sample but did not find it easy to
adapt to the 3-D shape. After one
week he was determined to send the
keyboard back but a few days later
he suddenly got comfortable with his
Maltron and sent a cheque instead.
Sixteen years later he is still using
the same Maltron keyboard on an all
day and almost everyday basis. The
assisted-recovery aspect is so
noticeable he can now use a flat
keyboard for an hour or two without
pain developing.
