I work with people with disabilities like CP, thus they often have trouble using a mouse. Some can use keyboard shortcuts and mousekeys, but almost all have had success with a Kensington ExpertMouse trackball. It has a nice size ball (about the size of a cue ball) and 4 programmable buttons. I like the buttons because you can program them not only for things like click and right click, but also for a number of other things like double click or drag or scrolling. It retails for $99, but you can usually find it for less.

I'll make a note of that trackball. If only we had $99! This center is basically self-supporting now. It was started with grant money, that no one bothered to reapply for. They all seem content mostly with just the socialization and lunches that they pay for, in space donated by the school. Most of them are depression-era folks, so they don't expect a lot. Maybe some of them will get interested enough to buy some new equpiment.
