    Maybe in Czech (guessing from your username) they don’t use possessives nearly as much? To me it sounds absolutely fine. In your example it could be seen as him showing you the keyboard (like your boss showing you your cubicle or whatnot). Funnily enough, in my native Spanish we also use possessives a ton in pretty much the exact same way, so in English it seems normal.
