I've often found the keys on a normal sized keyboard to be a bit small. (I 
have somewhat large hands - I think the original XBox1 "Duke" controller is 
the only good-sized game controller.) I spent some time trying to find a 
keyboard with slightly larger than normal keys, but couldn't come up with 
anything. OTOH, I may have just been being sloppy with my keypresses: I'm 
not hitting multiple keys anymore like I had been for awhile.
