Default Just an observation. Followed by a simple question.

I recently purchased a macbook. I was reading through the owner's manual, including the ergonomics chapter. Whilst sitting at my laptop's keyboard, I practiced the proper ergonomic techniques. I typed a few sentences, but something didn't feel right. It was an awkward feeling, the equivalent to wearing the wrong shoes on the wrong feet. I took a deep breath and decided to just try typing as I normally do and observe the difference. My left hand was positioned with the pinky resting on the shift key, ring finger on A, middle on W, and index on D. Both thumbs were positioned over the spacebar, and the pinky on my right hand lie on the Return key. Suddenly it all came back to me. I rarely used the computer before I started playing Counterstrike, so I never learned the proper typing techniques.

I just found it interesting that, even though I havent played CounterStrike (or any other computer FPS) in 3 years, yet until today, I had never noticed this "bad" habit of mine.

So my question is, has anyone else ever had a similar experience?
