On: The Workman Keyboard Layout Philosophy (2010)

[deno]

If you’re in a position to use armrests then you’re not sitting up straight. Likely leaning out on back “support” and your neck tensed up or on head “support” unless you have your monitor actually over above you.

Needless to say, trying to keep your wrists up in that position would be uncomfortable.

The best keyboard placement in this position is on your legs/thighs. Thin chiclet keyboard only laying flat. It’s not a replacement for fixing your posture, of course.

If you’re in a position to use armrests then you’re not sitting up straight

What an ignorant statement. It very obviously depends on the chair and body in question.

So are you sitting up straight or leaning back?

Sitting up straight. You need to go chair shopping.
