I, too, had some difficulty after switching to the NeXTStation, although not as severe as this post. In my case it only affected my mouse (right) hand. I suspect it had to do with dragging the wrist along the mouse pad, putting slight but steady pressure on the "jellyware" therein. I was able to alleviate the problem significantly by getting a foam wrist pad, but placing it lengthwise under my right elbow and forearm rather than across the width of the keyboard. Not trying to raise an alarm about this, but I wonder, has anyone had better (or worse) luck with the new mouse? --------------- Peter Kron Corona Design, Inc. Peter_Kron@corona.wa.com
