Then your desk was too high.
But hey, ISO 9241 made the same mistake, and drove the best keyswitches ever off the market for being over an inch high.
- X-Istence 13y agoMy desk is the right height so that my elbows form just over a 90 degree angle with the table. Having my chair lower, and thus having my arms bent more is extremely uncomfortable. The problem I have with the Model M and their various clones is that the keys simple sit too high. The only way I could get comfortable is by getting one of those keyboard gel cushions that sits in front of the keyboard. Not required with the Apple keyboard.
- kps 13y agoI don't follow you. If ‘the keys simple sit too high’, then the keyboard is too high, which can be solved by lowering it.
- AndresNavarro 13y agoI think he means too high with respect to the desktop/table surface.
