- Are there any other dos (i.e., less than $1800) laptops w/ wrist-rests?
- Strange criterion for a laptop, I know, but what the hell, there's too
- much out there so you gotta choose somehow.

- I believe Avi makes some not-too-expensive DOS notebooks that look
- like Powerbooks (wrist rest with trackball in front of keyboard).

- I use a Silicon Sports accessory wrist pad. This is a foam pad attached
- to a thing like a clipboard, so you can put your notebook PC on top
- of it. It increases typing comfort by quite a bit, though it
- was somewhat overpriced at $20 or so. The box it came in says
- Silicon Sport's phone number is 415-327-7900 in Palo Alto CA,
- or 1-800-243-2972 toll free.
