Staples should have them. You can go to

the website and look and get an idea.

I currently use a laptop and no mouse other than what is on the laptop. I have a keyboard tray that is fixed into position, can't push it in, so I have to stretch to use the laptop mouse and it does strain my shoulder. I need to look into getting a mouse tray too.

I haven't specifically looked for mouse trays, but was recently looking for a new keyboard tray and there are some that the mouse tray comes with it and can be hooked on either side.

I have no idea if OfficeMax or Staples has them, but again, OM or Staples cannot help you when you
have problems. I know you need to keep the price down, but I am telling you it is worth it at least for the first couple of doctors to pay more and know exactly what you are doing, and have someone to call if you have problems. I would buy the cheapest model they have at Transcription Gear. I have moved up to the better ones, but I believe they have one that is $225. If you have one or two single doctor offices that you can start with, that would be my recommendation. I use the Phillips 9450, which is way out of your price range. I gladly pay it for all new offices because I have gone the route you are attempting to go and will NEVER go that route again. If you can't go $225-230, look at what Phillips looks like so you will understand what I mean about emulating what most physicians have been using. I am sorry if I said that I was using Panasonic in previous posts. I forget it is Phillips and not Panasonic until I go looking for information. TG are fabulous people to deal with. Good luck.

Staples also
I also found a comfy office chair at Staples. I still tuck a pillow behind my back for support. It's one of the most important things you can do for yourself when you're straining your brain for hours on end.

I got a nice comfy one at Staples for $99 - sm
relatively cushy and has arm rests too (if you want arm rests that is). Nice grey suede-like material too. I still have to squinch around sometimes just for a change in position but I think that is unavoidable with sitting so long.

I have seen them at Walmart and Staples. Lots
of online sales right now, though I guess delivery by Christmas might be pushing it. I think Staples has free shipping right now. Actually, even local pharmacies carry Cross pen sets normally located by the watches. Good luck to you!

Silly, but I use Staples. I have a rewards
card and am always getting $$ back from them. Plus now they give you $3 coupons for each empty ink cart you return. And I shop for the ink I use when its on sale. I really save a lot - probably 50% - on brand name ink via Staples. Am a happy camper! I have tried E-bay before. In fact, I am a power seller on E-Bay, but really had bad luck with ink carts in the long run.

my daughter swears by Staples....*S*...nm

like at staples? I haven't looked

a - because I just realized this is why my shoulder is hurting and b- because I don't want a new desk and I always seem to get talked into things I don't want.

Do Office Max or Staples carry the ones you mentioned?
Those are the only two office stores we have within an hour drive of me. Which models in particular would you recommend??? I do need to keep the price down, whether I buy them or the doctor's office does.

I do appreciate your feedback. :)

I bought an Acer monitor from Staples

It's been well over a year now... Towers are a different story, but I've had pretty good luck with e-machines from Best Buy.

You can find different work gloves in Office Max, Best Buy, Staples,
