It is a computer posture environment because it has a special keyboard, which allows me to have my hands straight and not have to bend my wrists.

I've been frustrated both by the way that the original XKCD mirrorboard works, and the way I couldn't get the monstrosity of MXK to work properly. Therefore I've sat down yesterday to write The Mirrorboard. It's a Linux evdev/uinput hack that allows you to use your regular keyboard just like the way you would use the Matias 508 keyboard. Of course, the best part is - now any keyboard is a 508. You can check out the short project intro here: http://www.ordecon.com/2008/12/29/mirrorboard-type-with-one-hand-use-the-other-for-something-else/ and if you need help compiling it / getting it to run, don't be afraid to contact me!
