Hi folks. I thought I had posted one of these long ago, but apparently not.
I’m Kajsa - kajsa on github, kajsa_a on twitter and a few other places, and Kyrstellaine anywhere related to gaming. I’m in Minnesota, and no, we don’t have snow on the ground yet. 
I’m a software engineer and gamer (EQ, then WoW), and I’ve been hooked on wacky keyboards since an Ask /. thread led me to the Fingerworks Touchstream LP back in '99. I’m just learning to hack firmware - I built an Atreus about a month before I got my Model 01, and really enjoyed both building it and tweaking the layout. I’ve been using a TEK at work for the last several years, and have been really frustrated by the limits to its programability.
I don’t precisely have RSI, but I do a narrow keyboard that lets me keep my mouse in close - if it’s displaced too much, I get nerve impingement which is really odd and really, really annoying (usually I’m able to catch it before it gets to actively painful). I also use Evoluent’s Vertical Mouse 4 to reduce pronation when mousing, and have the secondary function button set up to allow me to cut, copy, and paste directly from the mouse.
My Model 01 is the first ergo keyboard since a first or second generation MS natural that I’ve been able to game with. [gah, that reminds me, I need to enable the mod-color thing so I can tell when I’ve accidentally gotten a mod stuck] It’s also the first one since the Touchstream where I’ve been able to get my Programmer’s Punctuation Pad back.
