And with the extra programmable buttons

Can you elaborate a bit on that?

At work I use Gateway AnyKey programmable keyboards, and over the years have structured the way I do things to the point that I would be very hard pressed to get by without them. I currently have about 40 different keys (or key combinations with shift, ctrl, and alt keys) programmed with macros, and Gateway has told me that I am the only person who ever complained about over-running the maximum keyboard memory of 1024 keystrokes.

Gateway AnyKey keyboards are getting pretty hard to find -- I think they stopped making them about six or seven years ago, and I recently put into service my last spare.

Would your keyboard serve as an acceptable substitute?
