Abstract

A computing system having a keyboard that is supported from a work surface by one or more support members. The positions of the support members relative to the keyboard are varied in accordance with a predetermined timed sequence, causing corresponding variances in the height of the housing portions corresponding to the support members. The intervals between height variances are such that the latter variances are not noticeable by the user of the system.
