I didn't even know they made left-handed keyboards. Go figure. I've never tried one of those, and many of them a bit too expensive for my blood, unfortunately.

I think at this point it would be a real struggle to retrain my muscle memory for one of those keyboards, though: I've been using the "mouse goes in the left hand" set-up since I first started using a computer as a very young child. (My mother's left-handed too, and so was my maternal grandmother, so it's not really an exaggeration to say I learned how to do everything left-handed...ly. We even apparently trained my father (who's right-handed) to use the mouse with his left hand.) I haven't been gaming with the numpad set up for quite so long, but since I've used it in every game from Skyrim to the original Half-Life, it's definitely become muscle memory as well.

I'm left handed and have never used another on a computer left handed. Maybe I'm more ambidextrous then most people but growing up and going through typing class and computer class in school it never occured to me. I played through all of oblivion right handed. I've actually never met a left handed person who doesnt do some things right handed but I just thought every one of us could play computer games this way. Obviously I was wrong but it would definitely bother me if I couldn't as well. I hope they fix this for you because you shouldn't need to download some third party software to be able to play there game in my opinion. Maybe I'll try playing oblivion left handed now.

This statement is flat-out false. You cannot remap to the keypad and if you change some of the core controls clustered around WASD you'll break their functionality altogether.

Wow that is..really considerate o_o.

We lefties have always been shafted by games companies. Almost every game comes out with WSAD as standard, while I don't mind remapping the keys, it would be nice to have a pre-configured profile for left handers so we can just load it and run instead of spending 15 minutes remapping almost every key. Mice, joysticks and other devices are all for right handers and most even moulded to fit nicely in the hand. I have been trying for months to get a reasonably priced left handed joystick with no luck, at least Razor backed down with a left handed mouse though, the only one on the market as far as I know.

Incidentally, I use the 4 separate arrow keys for movement normally since this overcomes the unmappable numeric keypad issue.

Wow! There's a $700 keyboard listed on that page!
