Hahaha! I have the same thing. I've got one original MS Natural still BNIB, and two Elite models each with a lot of mileage on them. I've long been dreading the day that my stash runs dry. Been keeping an eye on keyboard forums for years waiting for a replacement. The popularity of high-end keyboards with the terrible rectangle layout utterly baffles me. Why would someone who cares about keyboards ever choose that layout?

The Alice layout comes close enough to the Natural layout that I think it's a fantastic replacement. My complaints are small enough that I'm already adjusting after just a few hours of usage. I'm just thrilled someone is making a split ergo keyboard with a numpad!!
