    Rather Strange when you think of it.. Considering this is a Right Handed world!

    I end up having to sit low in my seat at a desk so that my complete arm is laying flat on the desk to use a mouse. Otherwise my arm will start hurting because my ring and pinky finger would be supporting the weight of my arm while moving a mouse..

    It starts with the wrist, but those bones in your wrist are attached to your elbow. Twist one of them accidentally and get a little tendonitis and whamo, using your right hand extended or resting for prolonged periods flairs up the elbow.

    -edit-

    Dammit, having a bad day. Hopefully I got my spelling right finally.

    Attacked?
    A Black Falcon: no, computer games and video games are NOT the same thing. Video games are on consoles, computer games are on PC. The two kinds of games are different, and have significantly different design styles, distribution methods, and game genre selections. Computer gaming and console (video) gaming are NOT the same thing."

    I use left and right hand to do stuff. Draw with left, paint with right... stuff like that.
    As far as gaming goes I much prefer character movement on left side.
