Microsoft has released the latest desktop package in this series - Sculpt Ergonomic Desktop, adding a new member to its ergonomic hardware family.

The Sculpt Ergonomic Desktop includes a unique split-layout keyboard (the main keyboard and a separate numeric keypad) and a mouse with a Windows key. The main keyboard has a certain degree of curvature, forming a "U" shape, with Windows 8 function keys and Fn toggle keys on the top right corner of the keyboard. Its biggest feature is that it has an independent numeric keypad, which you can place at any position that feels comfortable according to your habits.

The design of the mouse is also very unique, shaped like an egg, fitting well with the palm. On both sides, there are shortcut keys for the "Start" menu and a four-directional scroll wheel.

It is reported that Microsoft's ergonomic desktop set will be available this month, priced at $129.95 (approximately 795 yuan RMB). The mouse can also be sold separately, priced at $59.95 (approximately 367 yuan RMB).
