Using Photoshop with a Disability
Does anyone have some suggestions for how to effectively use Photoshop CS3 with only one arm? Would you suggest a tablet? Any direct help or suggestions for resources would be appreciated.
Thank you.

Get a two button mouse.
Get a two button mouse. Works wonders! And learn your key combos and keystrokes. For example, you can select the Marquee tool just by hitting the M key.

Powerpoint is not a design application
There are mice with more than 2 buttons. . .

or something from Logitec? You need a mouse with more than 3 or 4 buttons. . . maybe?
Tablet is NOT a bad idea.
You could ALSO use Apple's built in Speech Command (System Prefs- Speech- Turn Speakable Items On) in conjunction with the tablet to help you activate menus and so on. . . its NOT perfect but worth a try! (You can pretend to be in Star Trek lol!)
