The Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that work-related musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) account for one-third of all occupational injuries and illnesses. These disorders are the largest job-related injury and illness problem in the United States today.

Whose responsibility is safe computer usage — the employee or the employer?

Analysts predict electronic books will revolutionize the publishing industry. An electronic book primarily is a digital storage and display unit. They range in size and weight from a paperback to a two-pound textbook and can hold thousands of pages or the equivalent of ten or more books. You can move forward or backward one page at a time, or use a stylus to write notes in the margin.

What is your opinion of the electronic book? Will it replace the printed book? Why not just buy the book? Does society have a place for the electronic book? Who do you think will use electronic books and how will they use

them?

Analysts predict electronic books will revolutionize the publishing industry. An electronic book primarily is a digital storage and display unit. Some plug into a cradle that attaches to your computer, letting you download textbooks or novels from Web-based publishers. Others include a built-in modem that allows you to connect directly to the Internet. They range in size and weight from a paperback to a two-pound textbook and can hold thousands of pages or the equivalent of ten or more books. Keeping with some traits of traditional books, you can move forward or backward one page at a time, or use a stylus to write notes in the margin. What is your opinion of the electronic book? Will it replace the printed book? Why not just buy the book? Does society have a place for the electronic book? Who do you think will use electronic books and how will they use them?

Although input varies, in one way input devices do not: most are encased in a bland, beige, plastic shell. A California company is changing that by offering keyboards and mice in oak, cherry, or maple. Upgrading appearance is not cheap. A wooden keyboard costs more than $600, a wooden mouse more than $300. Some people insist these devices make for a more attractive and, in the long run, more productive work setting.

How much money would you spend to upgrade the appearance of your computer equipment? Why?

Would this kind of upgrade increase productivity? Why or why not?
