I have only just noticed this little sticker on my computer keyboard that reads as follows:!!IMPORTANT NOTICE
For comfortable and safe use,
please read the Safety and Comfort Guide.Of course!! It's all so simple when you understand how...

On the back of my keyboard there is a short blurb about warding-off carpal tunnel syndrome with good posture. This in itself is not particularly interesting. However, there is a hilarious little blockman (like on bathroom signs) illustration of a person typing using incorrect posture and he has these huge electrical-looking sparks flying out of his wrists. I wish I could shoot red bolts of electricity from my wrists. Maybe this carpal tunnel thing ain't so bad....... :D

What?! My Dell keyboard doesn't say that! All it says is "Warning: improper or prolonged keyboard use may result in injury." There's no safety and comfort guide! Why didn't I get a safety and comfort guide? Doesn't Dell care about my safety and comfort?
Okay...Fine...I'm just going to go now. Maybe I can find someone to hug me *sniff*

Mine's got a long blurb about various musculoskeletal disorders, including carpal tunnel syndrome. It refers me to a "Healthy Computing Guide" on the CD-rom that came with the keyboard.

There's no warning at all on my Gateway 2000 keyboard!
Otoh, there is a note that the cover and base are made of recyclable plastic (#6).
