ISO keyboards are bad.
But why not just using disposable gloves to operate the instruments?

Keyboards are cheap.  Why not everyone get their own?

Then we can all stop fighting about whether the <Enter> key should be
shaped like an "L" or not.

Dear all,

can you make suggestions for how to disinfect computer keyboards, and
instrument panels?

Our facility is going to reboot next week, with shifts so that people
don't meet. The main interface will be the computer keyboards, as well
as the door of our X-ray diffractometer and the mounting of the
crystals.

The keyboard labels may not like alcohols (and the efficiency of
injecting disinfecting through the USB cable is also under discussion,
so I heard).

One way would be to use individual keyboards, and wearing gloves for
replugging, and to use gloves for mounting crystals.

But maybe there are other ways that won't require gloves?

Best regards,
Tim
