Apple’s aluminum keyboard (on top of the Addesso in this photo) is 4.5″ deep, my Macally iKeySlim, 7″. It’s the depth of this beasty that’s simply excessive. It’s just over 19.5″ wide, while standard extended keyboards are 17-18.5″ wide (based on a representative sampling in my office). And, as you can see in the photo (shot in my car’s trunk), it is wider than the Power Mac G5 is deep. The keyboard had a layer of dust and lots of wear marks from use. ![]() Remember when ergonomic keyboards were all the rage in fighting carpal tunnel syndrome and repetitive stress injuries? Remember how incredibly huge most of those keyboards were? Well, I’d forgotten about them until I received this monstrosity with a recently acquired Power Mac G5.
