That is one helluva a keyboard you have there Wayne. Do you have some kind
of travelator to reach "Tab" and "Enter" at each extreme?
Joking (as I hope) aside, your suspicion regarding the mouse is backed by my
own experience many years ago, when I had the luxury of a desk as big as
your keyboard tray, with the PC on a stand beside the desk .. and the mouse
on the stand. That extra "reach" for the mouse was enough to give me
shoulder problems, but it was a long time before I realised the cause.
Posture is all.
All this talk of keyboards reminds me of the last time I used a real IBM
keyboard. On a PC AT. Running Lotus Framework (or was it Symphony?). RIP
both.

I have a custom desk I made with a custom 5 foot x 3 foot keyboard tray. I
cannot live without it. It also allows for my shoulders to be much more
relaxed. Afterall, nerves have to travel that way, and tight shoulders can
add to the problem.
I have some carpel tunnel in the right wrist, which can become numb when
bike riding. I think the mouse is the main cause versus the keyboard.
I am partial to my Logitech illuminated keyboard. When I used to live in the
office, keyboard sound was a real problem for me, and it didn't matter so
much the keyboard, but the way the person types. Some can really pound on
the keyboard. However, there was one guy, when he typed, it was very
soothing, like music. My own typing on a loud keyboard is irritating.
Laptop keyboard sounds on conference calls are very annoying. Especially
with heavy handed typists. And laptops being on the same surface as the
phone.
