I exclusively touch-type, and indeed every move to the mouse or
someplace else is a nuisance. After I got RSI I got myself a Kinesis
Advantage keyboard (http://www.kinesis-ergo.com/products/) some 10
years ago, which solves both the RSI and the "outward keys are hard to
reach" problem very elegantly. Took me some 3 days to adjust, but I
don't want to give it away any more :-)
