Is Horse the New Mouse?

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the kinda-doubt-it dept.

lopati writes "Europhysics News writes about a new ergonomical mouse called Horse (jpeg) that reduces repetitive stress injuries by allowing 'the three middle fingers to adopt a flexed position to relax the tendons' and including a thumb scrool [sic:] wheel. Just a few simple changes for so much more comfort!"

    This is something I've known for a long time, when I put my three middle fingers into my horse it relaxes me a lot too, let alone the horse. Including a thumb every once in a while is a simple change that gives so much more comfort.

    The world is full of right handed biased designers! Evil! Where's my left handed version? Don't you people know that your biased right hand designs make only a few of us left? (pun intended).

    "'the three middle fingers to adopt a flexed position to relax the tendons' "

    Why not a special version for Slashdot moderators which allows just the one middle finger to be used for moderation?
