   Pfft. I detest the shape of that MS mouse-- it fits my hand like a
left glove-- and I'm right handed. It may be perfectly shaped for
someone like Bill Gates, but it's the wrong shape for me. My Logitech
MouseMan at home feels great, and has not given me any problems in
over a year and a half of ownership.

   I also rather much hate all forms of 'natural' keyboards, MS or
not. When mousing with my right hand, I may be typing with my left,
and I want all the keys to be in nice straight rows. Computer parts
are not to get in my way if I'm to use them.
