I like change as much as the next guy (unless that next guy happens to be afraid of change) but when you start messing with the keyboard layout that I’ve been using since the early 80’s, I’m afraid I’m going to have to pass on your product. Such is the case with the μTRON keyboard. I understand that the split-down-the-middle design can be more ergonomic than your standard keyboard, but why on Earth would you move around all of the non-QWERTY keys? ALT is now sitting to the left of the A key, PgUp, PgDn, Home and End are now sitting way over on the left side of the keyboard, and the space bar looks to be smaller than your average Enter key! Baffling.
Oh and get this, it’s currently available in Japan for around $525! Yeah that’s the best way to ensure your radical new layout catches on, make it completely unaffordable to 95% of the world’s computer users.

I think that to get the loans from banks you should present a firm reason. Nevertheless, one time I have received a financial loan, because I was willing to buy a house.

I took my first personal loans when I was 20 and it aided me a lot. However, I require the collateral loan also.

I understand what your talking about, living today is completely different then it was when I was younger. I reckon that our great grand parents didn’t really even think about this , modern technology makes a lot of things possible . Reckon I am just old fashioned , but I recall when a hard days work was the norm . People were honest , you could trust if your kids were outside by themselves they were safe , and things just weren’t as expensive either . I suppose costs are always going to have inflation, however I don’t understand why we can’t go back to the days when neighbors really cared for one another and actually knew each others names. I suppose its in the past , but hey, its a great day to be alive , I reckon we ott to just keep on keeping on.
