I'm left handed, but I use the mouse on the right. I find it harder to work
the keyboard than the mouse, so I need the superior coordination of my good

Sometimes it's just a question of giving in ... you can't get cars or
motorcycles with different controls for left handers, you just take what there
is and learn to like it.
