ABSTRACT:
A work surface for operating a computer cursor control device in the lap or on the thigh of a computer user while the hands and arms are in a natural resting position while seated, thereby reducing the injuries and fatigue associated with operating a computer cursor control device on a desktop with the hands and arms extended. The work surface has a retaining wall partially around the perimeter which keeps the mouse from rolling off the operating surface when the mouse is left unattended. The telemetry cord of the computer cursor control device is captured in a clip or opening to define the length of cord necessary to operate the mouse and keep the cord from accidentally dragging the mouse from the work surface. The work surface may be positioned on the either thigh or across the lap and retained by adjustable locating means.
