Input Empowerment

I feel much more capable when using a computer with a mouse. There are lots of tasks that don’t require a mouse, but for anything that requires more than a trivial amount of cursor activity, I really don’t like using a track pad. Not only are they slower, using them to try to do precise things for too long makes me start to feel physically ill. It is probably the same reason that trying to precisely position knobs on machines like signal generators also makes me feel ill. I want to be able to control my tools easily.
