If you're mobility-impaired (or you adore your mouse), you should know that Windows XP's accessibility tools include an On-Screen Keyboard. This tool allows you to type without touching your keyboard. Select Start, All Programs, Accessories, Accessibility, On-Screen Keyboard, and up pops a virtual keyboard. (Click OK to close the informational dialog box.)
By default, clicking an On-Screen Keyboard letter "types" it on screen. Or, you can switch to "hover" mode, where you don't click at all. Select Settings, Typing Mode, select "Hover to select," set the desired interval, then click OK. Now, holding your mouse pointer over a key for the set amount of time "types" that key. To close the On-Screen Keyboard, click the X in its upper-right corner or select File, Exit.
