Haven't tried to draw with it; I should probably start. I have Vista; I'll poke around in it today! Thanks!<br /><br />Paul- It's a challenge all right! Both hands?

That stinks.<br /><br />I'm guessing writing is not the only task that gives you problems?<br /><br />One day last week I woke up to the alarm going off and found both my hands were asleep/numb (no idea how I pulled that off) and took forever to turn the dang thing off.<br /><br />Life without full use of your hands: yikes!paulghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06403056340935138611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8744889144101573638.post-37614853313950113042011-10-18T18:40:09.010-04:002011-10-18T18:40:09.010-04:00What's your operating system?

I re...You type with one hand? Are you left-handed?<br /><br />I remember when I first started work, and computers for that matter, I was two-finger typing. It's amazing how you adapt. I taught myself to type eventually... it's not something they taught in England back then. <br /><br />I always wonder whether to go at it on the computer or in a pad. Hand-writing takes me so long, and my writers-bump hurts... but I do like to scribble in a pad while I work. There's something about having the pad and pen there. <br /><br />$700! Ouch. I wonder if there is some sort of freeware version. I'll have a look for you...CarrieBoohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05760105674950918729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8744889144101573638.post-76493400337264983412011-10-18T15:34:06.767-04:002011-10-18T15:34:06.767-04:00Lawless- Hahah!
