Yeah, nothing very useful to add

I know someone I worked with who had wrist problems used a joystick thingy instead of a normal mouse. That might be easier to operate.
And speech recognition software (Dragon?) is supposed to be pretty good nowadays.


A former colleague of mine suffered from a similar problem and used a giant trackball device instead of a mouse. I know hers was designed for children but I can't find that one specifically; I've linked something similar but I'm not sure that is still available either. Either way, a trackball might be better because you can do what you need to do just by moving your hand over it without having to grip it.
If you are from Betelgeuse, please have one of your Earth friends read what I've written before you respond. Or try concentrating harder.

"The trophy problem has become extreme."
Easyball?

what's wrong with seed oil? LadyLorraine - 01/10/2010 01:50:20 PM 527 Views
There's nothing wrong with it - it's good stuff - but fish oils contain much more DHA. (beat.) - 01/10/2010 05:31:48 PM 645 Views
