Endless Possibilities With the Desk Saver Keyboard
The Desk Saver Keyboards saves space by compressing row (not column) spacing, eliminating wide borders and rearranging key clusters. Studies with typists indicate that normal typing speed is achieved after a short familiarization period. Arranging the numbers, cursor and function clusters above the main array allows eye scan without head movement.
Choose from two models: a very low profile "Flat" Model that is only 1" tall, or the "Elevated" Model that features a gradual incline to 3". Both models come with tactile key switches for improved keying accuracy, and also offer an optional built-in Glidepoint Touchpad in place of the top center section of keys. An additional cable connects the Touchpad to the computer's serial or PS/2 mouse port.
Help For Those Cramped Spaces!
Many workstations today are equipped with small keyboard draws or adjustable trays that are only large enough for a 19" to 20" keyboards. This was alright until pointing devices came into the picture. Now, most people use a mouse up to 50% of the time while at their computers, and the mouse is placed in the only place possible: back up on the desktop!
This type of setup, while still very common, creates a number of ergonomic concerns. That is why OSHA has issued new ergonomics standards to reduce musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) developed by workers whose jobs involve repetitive motions, force, and awkward postures. This reaching significantly increases the risk of developing (MSDs). The input device needs to be next to the keyboard.
Reducing The Reach.
With the Desk Saver Keyboards, there is now ample room for the mouse to be placed on existing small drawers and trays without feeling cramped or having to reach. It also offers an intergrated Glidepoint Touchpad, reducing your reach even further. Now you have eliminated the need to upgrade or replace existing drawers or trays.
Another area addressed by the Desk Saver Keyboards, are mouse-intensive employees that are experiencing neck and shoulder problems. Many times these problems are related to the positioning of the pointing device. By reducing the reach across the cursor and numeric pads and centralizing the work area, the strain is significantly reduced.
