Hmm... Learning to sit up straight was a pain for me, too.  A good chair
is almost a prerequisite.  You might try looking with your eyes, but keeping
your head still.  You might also try pulling your chin in to look down,
rather than moving your head out.

Also, on DEC keyboards (and most others with function keys, except HP maybe)
the function keys are grouped together into 4 or 5 together with space between
groups.  You can feel for the group, line your fingers up, and go from there.
Eventually, this shouldn't take any more thought than aligning your hands on
home row by feeling for the slight differences in the keys.

You'll find more info in the FAQ, which I should be posting again in a few days.
I totally rewrote the general info section.  It has a fair amount of posture
information in it, now.

Enjoy,
