Programmers type more in a single sprint than most office workers type in a month, and the keyboard underneath those fingers rarely gets the scrutiny it deserves. Three boards released or refreshed in the past year approach that problem from completely different angles. The MoErgo Glove80 is a $399 split-ergonomic board built for people who…
