Subject: [c_p] Easier computing


> We have often talked about how to manage computer chores without

> I have an optical precision mouse on my computer. It was given to
> me at Christmas. It uses light to determine where the cursor goes
> instead of a contact wheel with the surface of the desk, etc. It
> absolutely demands no pressure on my hand, plus the scrolling wheel
> is also very sensitive and demands no extra stress on my finger.
> With very arthritic hands this has been a blessing in my life.

> Someday I'll get a voice command typing program like several of you
> use, but for now I'll keep typing since it's good exercise for my
> hands and helps maintain flexibility and range of motion.
