What position do you use your Keyboard?

Murray · 12 Jul 2011 at 02:02

Do you have your keyboard near the edge of your desk or do you have it farther back so you can rest your arms on your desk?

Random thought that popped into my mind.

I wrote it how I say it then I thought it sounded wrong.

Depends on how I'm sat at the computer.

On my laptop I find it tends to be fixed infront of the screen and on my works desktop I have it offset at some strange angle and about 20cm infront of the monitor base.

I have two, side-by-side.

Exact position changes muchly throughout the day.

My keyboard has two main positions as depicted in the below diagram.

As I am a freak (read: left handed), I use the mouse with my left hand. When gaming I still use WASD though (cba setting up and learning new buttons for each game) so keyboard has to shift and rotate.

It can be a bit awkward if someone messages me in-game.

P.S: I should note that the 15" is currently not connected to anything and is used as a post-it note repository.
These post-it notes contain invaluable information such as how much XP each wave on DoWII The Last Stand mode gives you, which Runewords for DiabloII I am after and also the ship tier list for X3TC.

I push my KB back, so i rest my elbow sometimes.

Pushed back with elbows resting on the desk.

Cosimo · 12 Jul 2011 at 08:54

Usually pushed back but sometimes resting on the edge and my knee.

Usually, I like to swing it above my head edge on. This gives a much harder impace, and can increase the likelyhood of a down-first-time blow.

Either that, or on the desk straight.

That's the least awkward thing about your post, man. Sorry.

Pushed back a bit so my palms are on the edge of the keyboard tray.

Some of you have your elbows on the desk??!? Say hello to a life of subluxation!
