It must be time to acknoledge that the scroll bars need to be on the left of
workspases. It is now an option in One Note. How long before it appears in
XP, and more importantly, in Mobile, this is a must for left handed people.
Every time you need to scroll, you cover the screen with your hand, and
can't see how far to scroll.

It took many years to get a L.H. mouse, how about a L.H. OS.

Ever hopefull - simplefi

If you are using a mouse, how does your hand get in front of the screen?
You do know that the button assignments can be changed on most
mice....effectively reversing their use? LH mouse, LH OS, how about LH
bathroom tissue, LH toothbrush, LH bicycles, LH light bulbs, ad nauseum.

All of you, try reading the message again, your comprehension must be
faulty.

He's talking about mobile and doesn't mention mouse until the last sentence.
 
Sorry guys, didn't make it clear, the problem is on the PPC.

However, on a PC it's npt the problem. I would suggest you keep an open
mind, and just take note of your mouse movements, you go to the RH side to
scroll, then to the LH side to select a folder or file. Wouldn't it be nice
if you could stay on one side to do both.

The PPC point is good - but I pretty much nevber use scroll bars in windows
itself - I have a scroll wheel on my mouse for that job. You can get LH mice
with them. My partner (she's left handed) and windows tend to get on pretty
well.
