    You could also try using a trackball. They're meant to be a pain in the ass to get used to though.

    Track ball FTW.


    or learn the keyboard shortcuts so you don't need to use a mouse.



    TBH unless you have extrememly bad posture you aren't really at risk from RSI unless you are spending hours every day on the PC and even the it's only a few people who get affected. Most of the anti-RSI products industry is about litigation avoidance , just look at how the shapes have changed over the years , if one design provided proven benefits then it would be in use everywhere.

    don't forget that telegraph operators had very repetitive keying during their careers.

    Hi lads

    Know its an old thread but just dropping in to say I got a Evoluent vertical mouse 4 (wired) the other day and couldnt believe how easy it is to get used to and how comfortable it is to use. Nothing worse than using a bad or uncomfortable mouse and keyboard

    I have a Logitech trackman but the click button is packing up - possibly I could order a replacement off Digikey as that trackball is unfortunately no longer made
