In 28 years of computer use, I have never used a "mouse", always a trackball.
I need only move one finger and a thumb to perform all. The trackball is 
wireless and sets on my fat belly. No arm motion. No wires to tug.
Why would I want to move my bod?
Even a virtual screen based keyboard is available.
