Editing IBM 5120 (section)

== Form Factor and Physical Design ==

The 5120 chassis is a substantial desktop:

* '''Dimensions''' — desktop form factor with detached keyboard.
* '''Weight''' — 45 kg (99 lb).<ref name="wp5120" />
* '''Built-in 9-inch monochrome CRT''' — major usability improvement over the 5-inch tube of the 5100 / 5110.
* '''Detached keyboard with palm rest''' — IBM cited "reduced static loading in arms and shoulders" as a usability advantage.
* '''Recessed lift areas''' on the bottom for easier handling (industrial design).
* '''Reduced desktop footprint''' compared with the 5110 + 5114 combination.
