best suit your comfort posture.

weight support for your arms. Keep your forearms, wrists, and hands in a relaxed and neutral (horizontal)
position. Type with a soft touch without pounding the keys.

Questions about vision?

display screens provide you with clear, crisp images and large, bright displays that are easy to see, yet easy
on the eyes. Any concentrated and sustained visual activity can be tiring. If you have questions on eye
fatigue or visual discomfort, consult a vision-care specialist for advice.
