Does anyone else out here have a hard time typing on a laptop keyboard vs an old-school slanted one?

Having grown up typing on regular typewriters, including the trusty manual Olivetti's, I find the flat laptop design irritating.

I have a wireless full-size w/ numeric keyboard but somehow USB Receivers (keyboard & mouse) seem to have gone missing. I'm certain I kept them in the USB hub when I packed up in Aug but they weren't there when I unpacked.
