Random access vs. sequential access. Guess which one is more efficient?

  I think you're equating "random" with keyboard and "sequential" with mouse, but I also think of keyboard as "serial" and keyboard + mouse as "parallel". I know my conclusion from your comment is supposed to be "keyboard is faster", but I'm not sure that's true. https://www.asktog.com/TOI/toi06KeyboardVMouse1.html https://www.asktog.com/TOI/toi06KeyboardVMouse1.html

    No, I am equating mouse with random access (can click on any of the 2D points), and keyboard with sequential (need to tab through form components) ;-) You would have to claw my trackpad from my cold dead hands.
