I can honestly say that they hired anyone that could effectively grip a mouse.
Funny you should mention that. I, too, during high school, worked for a company that handled Gateway's outsorced tech support calls. I can honestly say that they hired one person who was actually physically unable to grip a mouse. He was in a wheelchair with a birth defect that left him with barely any hands or feet. Don't get me wrong; he was excelent at answering calls and dealing with people, but he moved the mouse around with his stubs and chicken-scratched at the keyboard.
