Abstract

A keyboard support arrangement which includes both a main support pad for a keyboard, and an auxiliary support pad for a mouse. The auxiliary support pad is removably and multiply positionable on and relative to the main support pad to provide increased convenience and flexibility of use with respect to the mouse support pad.
The auxiliary pad is totally separable from the main pad, and a releasable and multi-positional connecting structure is provided for permitting the auxiliary pad to be mounted directly on the main pad adjacent either side edge thereof. The connecting structure also enables the auxiliary pad to be positioned relative to the main pad at one of many different angular relationships.
