I have a keyboard with an 18-inch cord. It is barely long enough
to reach from one side of the keyboard to the other! Absolutely
useless.
Mine is theoretically extendible -- stretch of curled-up cord -- ,
but to reach the computer I have it plugged into a KVM switch,
which is the only use the latter has in real life. It seems
that USB extension cords are commonplace, but keyboard ditto non-
existent.
I did think of replying to Paul's original message saying, "well, at
least you can plug it into an extension lead of your preferred length".
