Down with Righty!!!

[sixf00t4]

in my struggle, nay my PRIVILEDGE of being left handed, logictech has layed the bricks for a new era. They have a dream, a dream where men, woman, and children will live together in peace, regardless of left or right hand dominance. here is my new cursor

I'm sure I have the joke file here somewhere that will reverse your screen for ya. (180 horizontal flip)

Cheers!

Left handed store too!

The normal arrow points left! What's wrong with that!
So you're left handed even the arrow has to be the opposite of right handers?

Yeah, I guess that's right - err.. correct!

Probably something instilled in him at a young age though.

Wow, they've even got a left-handed keyboard there, for a mere $87.50!

yes but it approaches from the right, as a right hander would.

yes it was something "instilled" in me as a young child, a bitterness towards right handers. i had a list of all the things that made me mad, but i forget most of them, perhaps i will get back on that...

1. hold a Bic pen in you right hand, notice the lettering, now hold it in your left. they only advertise to the right handers.

2. Belts, it is natural for me to put it on the "other" way.

3. Shirts, natural for me to want the buttons on the "other" side. (and this i guess is considered how women's shirts are made... REASON?????)

4. the whole mouse thing.

5. i am more comfortable driving with my left foot. too bad the pedals dont let me.

6. left handed guitars are hard to find (i went to a shop with 400+ guitars over x-mas, and not a single one) and when you do find one they are MUCH more expensive.

7. right hand on the Bible, Right hand shake, Right hand over your heart

all i could think of in the moment




Great site btw, very interesting. i wonder if anyone actually uses that keyboard??

[CrazyCase]

I think that even if i was left handed i wouldn't want to pay $87.50+shipping for the left handed keyboard...not to mention $82.95+shipping on a left handed mouse... that is like $150 i wouldn't have to spend...

sixf00t4, you're my hero!

Actually, I use the mouse with my right hand. However, I find this an advantage; unlike right-handed people, I can write while pointing and clicking.

The only computer thing I do that's distinctively left-handed is use a joystick, a situation for which Saitek has provided.

Mods, I fail to understand why this topic is considered community.

osprey, when I need to write and browse at the same time I will switch the mouse to my left hand and still be able to write with my right.

How is this topic anything other than community?
