What about those of us who are ambidextorous?
Is that a balancing act?

Ima righty. But i tend to be right-brain dominant. So I don't know how that works.

I'm a rightie....but I thnk I have a most warped sense of the world and look at it through very non-rose colored glasses...

I think i was meant to be a leftie but was forced to be a rightie - i write with my right but do many other things better as a leftie when i dont think about it...
or maybe i am just a twisted individual in anycase...
ITS A KILT, G** D*** IT!

I think most mice are naturally right pawed, but they can learn to use their left if necessary.
You can change the function of the pc's mouse buttons as you wish, at least you can in Windows. Just go Start, Settings, Control panel, Mouse. Intelipoint will give you a miriad options, but plain vanilla Windows can mirror image the clicks.
As a leftie in a house of righties I normally use the mouse in my right hand because it was always there on the right, but when I am using the pc on my left (there are two set up side by side)and moving data between the two I use a mouse in each hand.
It does take a moment or two to get hand eye coordination.
It might be easier for British/European people to be more leftie, as we eat with the fork in the left hand and a spoon usually in the right, though that is not entirely dictated by custom - usually you can only spot a leftie if they take condiments, as most people shake salt or pepper, or use a small spoon in their dominant hand.
My right handed younger son uses his knife and fork swapped over, but it is not usually noticed or commented on all that much if it is. It is no big deal.
