Repetitive Strain Injury Solution 4 – exchanged usual computer mouse against a trackball

Repetitive strain injury (rsi) solution number 4: After my unsuccessful try #3 I exchanged my usual mouse against a trackball-mouse.
Actually a trackball is an inverted mouse. So there you move the “mouse-ball” directly and the “mouse-body” stands still.
This is a good solution – it’s a complte other way to operate your mouse cursor. But imaging – after a couple of weeks – you’re still operating the same way all day long. You just re-schedule your RSI problem. Think about it.
