Granted they don’t get the same amount of attention compared to the likes of other peripheral makers, but Microsoft’s keyboards have over the years have been pretty well-received especially amongst casual users.

One of the more iconic keyboard offerings comes in the form of the Natural Ergonomic Keyboard 4000, which Microsoft has since redesigned and released as the Surface Ergonomic Keyboard. Note that both products are separate from each other, but as you can clearly see in the design, the Surface Ergonomic Keyboard certainly reminds us of the Natural Ergonomic Keyboard 4000.

That being said, there are some obvious differences. For starters the keyboard will have a palm rest that is wrapped in a double-cushioned Alcantara that promises to be gentler on your hands.
