Computer users at risk of RSI

Computing and repetetive strain injury of the spine (RSI)
RSI afflicts a growing number of computer operators and can be quite debilitating.
One cause that has come to light is the fact that people are spending a lot longer sitting at their computers because their software is not behaving properly causing the machine to hang and thus taking longer to complete the task.

Better training in the use of the software should help but what is more important is to make sure that the software is not flawed.

Over the Christmas period millions of photographs will have been taken to capture the happy times and many of us will use the computer to enhance the photos with graphic packages.

Soon the hard disc is filled with the images and will need to be saved to another media.

CD Burning packages are ideal for this some work better than others and are very user friendly.

Bearing in mind the less time you spend at the computer means the less chance you will have of developing RSI.
