These sound like good ways to navigate a Mac with one hand. What is
the best way to type with one hand? I don't need this, but I'm curious
in case I need to train somebody who only has the use of one hand and
wantss to use a Mac.

Hello Brandt,
I know someone who manages to use his Mac one handed, not because he
has any problems using two, but because he likes to have one hand free
for coffee, the phone, or whatever.
The best way to achieve this is to use the Keyboard commander to
perform commands that normally require two hands. If the MacBook you
borrow has the multi-touch trackpad, you'll also be able to use
gestures. Then, if you get an external numpad, there's the Numpad
commander, too.
So, between all these commanders, you should be able to configure the
MacBook to work one-handed. Oh yes, and the Mac has Sticky Keys, too.
Cheers,
Anne

Hi there folks,
Someone is giving me a mac book to use temporeraly untill I can save
the R1195 for a macbook pro 13 inch.
Due to a stroak I lost most of the use of my rite hand, in fact
opperating most everything one handed. I know how to use sticky keys in
windows, but would like more details on the subject matter before
getting the macbook.
Warm regards,
