Hi, I went to Circuit City the other day looking for a DVD drive. I found them to be very very expensive. So I looked at wrist pads and they were priced at $16. The texture was silky smooth and the pad was very soft (gel filled I think). Is $16 a good price for a wrist pad? It seems a tad much...

for some people they work. Me? most of the time my wrists are up, not resting on anything.

At Intel, some people even have these ugly elbow rests that swing around. They're attached to the desk for "optimum ergonomics and reduction of possibly injury." I've only seen them a couple of times, but they're out there.

I got mine for 10 bucks at Office Max; watch for them to go on sale in your sunday paper.

I think the pad will actually help me out. I will go ahead and buy it for $16. I don't have transportation so I have to buy locally. Anyways, thanks guys!
