Whoops, Chair it is!

I moved desks and have apparently lost the ability to type with any satisfaction.
All the sudden I am hitting keys out of order, typing slower because of that and generally making myself crazy. Now the problem persists to my computer at home. Help!

Keyboard height is crucial. You can get a tray to install under your desk if it's too high.

Response by poster: I am thinking height is the big issue after reviewing these postings.
Thanks!

Even more likely: Could your new desk be just a touch shallower or higher or lower than your other one? That would make a big difference too, since our hands are used to being held at a certain distance and height while we type. If that changed, the way you approach the keyboard could change too.
We have two main computers at work. I'm on mine 99% of the time, and when I go to the other one, I make so many typos that it's ridiculous...the keyboard is closer to me (by about 2 inches) and a touch higher than mine, and I can't adapt at all.
If you can't move your desk, take comfort in the fact that you will adjust, eventually!
