Is the Mac ergonomic?

Apparently this past Tuesday was RSI (Repetitive Strain Injuries) Awareness Day, “because work shouldn’t hurt” (and because it hurts for, like, 99.999% of the human population). Well, my new job started Wednesday — I was given an iMac — and after just one day my old wrist, forearm and elbow injuries were coming back to haunt me. Are the iMac keyboard and mouse all that ergonomic? While Jonathan Ives, the designer of the iMac, has a lot of fascinating stuff to say about the design of my friendly new machine, I’d like to hear what he thinks of the damned keyboard. Gateway … take me away.
