Comment Twisted arm graphic (Score 2, Insightful) 252
Ok, on the graphic example of the "twisted" arm, the hand holding the regular mouse, is twised WAY to far.
(Link to graphic in the article here.)
Also, it seems to me, holding the mouse in a 90 degree angle, like their many examples show, would stress my THUMB more than holding a regular mouse would stress my "twisted" arm..
Try it yourself. Hold your arm like in their example, pretend like your holding the 90 degree mouse. Now move your wrist 90 degrees, as if you were going to hold a mouse. I'm not sure about everybody else, but my wrist mostly moved, NOT my arm.
Nice try though.
