The typing injury FAQ has some of the best alternative keyboards detailed including the Maltron and the Kinesis Ergo which you can completely remap the keys to any custom configuration. Just write a little app that analyzes the frequency of all the keys in a typical week and then remap the keyboard accordingly. Also makes for a good security feature. Nobody can figure out your interface!!
Yes, it would have been nice to get it with Debian but I just ordered a Dell Dimension with Red Hat and was for the first time able to buy a computer with no revenue for MS. The configurations are pretty locked as it only came with 128MB of RAM I had to put 2 additional 128MB DIMMs on the order and will have to install them myself. But how difficult is that??? I called Gateway and they would not sell me a box with Linux and with Compaq you have to special order a server with Linux. Compaq does not have any standard desktops configured with Linux. So for the big players so far it's only Dell and IBM that are 'really' supporting linux!!
