Just a guess, but we could place bets (no fair looking first). Oops, all bets are off - I couldn't resist looking... http://www.answers.google.com/answers/threadview?id=334862 ... the moused (90%) and the unmoused (10%)... That's a bit misleading; sorry. The study cited only said that 90% of those studied used the mouse heavily every day. It didn't say what percentage *have* a mouse. 99%? 99.999%? Here's some more from the study, FYI: - "80% used desktop computers (n=63,319), 9% used laptops (n=7846) and 11% used both desktop computers and laptops (n=8463)." - "the mouse was used with desktop computers at 97% of organisations surveyed. At 73% of these organisations, all desktop users used the mouse. - "the mouse was used with laptop computers at 64% of organisations surveyed. At 31% of organisations, all laptop users used a mouse" - "the majority (90%) use a mouse on a daily basis, operating the device with their right hand" - "...mice with 2 buttons (67% of workplace assessment interviewees and 85% of user questionnaire respondents) although 3-button mice were also quite common (20% of workplace assessment interviewees and 10% of user questionnaire respondents)"
