The guy at Ars Technica who writes the fantastic OS X reviews, John Siracusa, also has RSI. He uses Dragon Dictate to write most of his articles. He recently discussed RSI in length in an episode of the Pragmatic podcast: http://techdistortion.com/podcasts/pragmatic/episode-50-accidental-clicking http://techdistortion.com/podcasts/pragmatic/episode-50-acci...

  @26m John explains that it's really hard to get a diagnosis for the actual problem. You'll get all kinds of advice on the web where people will tell you to go to a doctor. Unfortunately, it's really hard for a doctor to determine the source of the problem. About a minute later he explains how the problem might not even be in your hands, it could be in your shoulder, for example, but you might feel the pain in your hands. @1:16:25 keyboard discussion @1:26:00 keyboard layouts @1:36:10 Is it all in your head?
