I really don't think it has anything to do with epilepsy. I prefer split keyboards, but that's because 1) they're better for your hands and 2) I know how to type correctly. I also like a big mouse, but that helps with arthritis...probably from spending all day at a computer.

What i've done at work, since many of us use laptops, is dock them, and use whatever keyboard/mouse is comfortable.

My problem with the keyboard on a notebook, laptop, and palmtop, is the sort of the same as a woman(I am male) who wears 'flats' instead of closed/open-toed heels. The physical analogy is, having to force the foot/hand to do/use something for the same purpose that is unnatural.
