Bad Design Idea ASUS

Toward the middle of February, I sat down at my desk to use my ASUS AIO ET2322 computer; AIO stands for all-in-one. I keep the computer covered with a flat sheet to keep it protected from dust. When I removed the sheet, I discovered that the computer had been powered on and therefore, it was warm. The computer displayed the BIOS screen, which I thought was due to the computer being a bit too warm. I rebooted the computer and the computer booted fine.

In 2016, I experienced an episode of repetitive strain injury (RSI) . I have suffered sporadically from RSI for a number of years, although at that time I didn’t know what the condition was. After my RSI flareup in 2016, I performed a search on Amazon and discovered the book It’s Not Carpal Tunnel Syndrome!: RSI Theory and Therapy for Computer Professionals , written by Suparna Damany, MSPT and Jack Bellis. According to ergonomic guidance in the book, using a large computer keyboard can result in RSI issues because you have to reach further to access computer pointing devices. At the time, I was using the Logitech illuminated keyboard , which I loved because the keys were very easy to depress and they were also backlit.
