Again, if you're using a conventional mouse correctly, you don't move the hand, either -- you rotate the wrist and flex the fingers to have full range of motion of the mouse. Of course, you've got to have your mouse settings set correctly to do this -- if you have them set to require too much travel, you end up having to move you hand on the desk. Set properly, the wrist rests on the desk and stays entirely stationary. 15 years ago, I was training DOS users how to use the mouse for the first time, as they switched to Windows, and this was one of the basic principles I had to show them, as it isn't obvious to those who haven't used the mouse before. -- David W.
