Does anyone know where I can buy a simple modern left handed computer keyboard with programmable shortcut keys and a USB connection?

I have been searching for ages but found nothing suitable. Typical problems include:
- PS2 connection which was obsolete years ago
- permanently out of stock (soi no excuses for lack of demand from righties please!)
- weird diagonal A-shape keyboard layouts
- no interest in customers as they do not reply to simple questions (thanks A4Tech.com, cbbstore.com)
- need a floppy disk to install
- incompatible with specific brands of computer
- looks 20 years old and is 5 times the price of an equivalent right handed keyboard

I am not bothered whether it is wired or wireless, and I do not need a mouse.

Thanks

Zuzwang

they make left handed keyboards? How hard is it to use a normal keyboard(serious question)? as for the PS2 connection, they make converters, and my new(within a year) computer has a PS2 port for keyboard and mouse.

a left handed person could easily learn to type with a regular keyboard. i dont really get why you are looking.

Try the usual big makers like logitech and or Alien gaming machines. I believe I’ve seen a leftys keyboard, enter key on the otherside or something like that. Just can’t remember where. There is a left hander’s society out there too. I’m sure one of them has looked into it. FYI Lefty’s are in their right mind too.
