"the problem is usually the interface between the chair and the keyboard."
Loved reading this. Well said [1]. I am sure this post resonates a lot with many of us. I remember a joke where someone calls the tech support of a computer company and it goes like this:

Tech. guy: "Whats the problem. Did you press the ON switch? "
Person: "Yes of course. I pressed it twice already"

Some like the extra training and use it well, others could care less and it doesn't stick.
