[Hidden-tech] Looking for used laptop

[Will Loving]

Naaz,

For those who have had repetitive stress issues with using a mouse or
trackball, I¹d like to suggest the Logitech ³Trackman Wheel², a thumb
operated trackball which I¹ve settled on as the least irritating of any
devise I¹ve used (and I¹ve tried quite a few including a ³foot pedal²
mousing system). Everyone¹s injuries are different, but some people may find
this helpful. Since I started using it, I haven¹t had a single episode of
pain or inflammation. Using the thumb to operate the trackball seems to be a
much more natural movement than using fingers...
