MacBook Pro keyboard & longer fingernails

Your problem may affect many more people that we might first think. One thought I have (and I don't have long nails to experiment with) but, when you use your MacBook on a table would it be possible to put something beneath it at the front. Something like a 12" ruler. The thought being to change the angle at which your fingers hit the keys.

Are you serious?

"Its quite a strange feeling, not helped by how how awfully shallow the keys are.

It's gotten to the point where I'm now looking at keeping an external keyboard, which seems ridiculous to me.

The only other solution is to change my body to be able to comfortably use my favorite laptop, and to have to trim my nails on a shorter schedule than I'm used to. A bit frustrating"

Are you suggesting that Apple design and build their keyboards so that you don't have to trim your nails? What length mails should they design for, 1", 2" 3" longer? I think this may be the most "ridiculous", as you put it in your post, call for help I've seen in these technical help communities. 😝

You made my day. 😁

Greetings, Bob.

I must admit that my initial feelings were similar to yours but then I realised that she had been able to use machines before so perhaps it was something we could offer suggestions on. I think the real question is how long is long but as the writer hasn't come back to us, I guess we may never know.
