<snip> The other thing about a mouse is that there is no type ahead. You cannot

proceed to a second mouse click until the first one has revised the
screen, so the sequence is not "key, key, key, look", but "mouse-click,
watch until, move mouse, mouse-click".

Mousing left handed and typing right handed helps, but is still slower,
even for a one handed typist.
Realizing that I jumping into the center of a thread, Pete, and not even responding to you, directly, I still feel a need to say, "Err, umm, my OS/2 system does mouse-ahead just fine."
As for one handed :) I use a 4-button trackball with my left hand and keyboard with my right, but only when my voice recognition system lacks a term or my allergies are peaking!
