29 of 30 people found the following review helpful  Total wrist relief, June 20, 2009 This review is from: Intelligels� GENII Soft Foam **Laptop Computer** Wrist Rest! (Office Product) I'm studying for the bar exam and have been having major wrist issues since I spend most of my days hunched over my laptop (a 13" MacBook), typing up outlines. I knew I needed some type of wrist cushion to modify the way my I typed, so I went ahead and purchased this product. Great decision. The wrist rest arches your wrist, so that your fingers come down over the top of the keyboard, instead of having your wrist lie flat on the laptop itself (which is a very unnatural position). It has made typing much more comfortable, and has alleviated my wrist pain completely. Goodbye, carpal tunnel.. hello comfort!

22 of 23 people found the following review helpful  NOT Mac Friendly, January 27, 2010 This review is from: Intelligels� GENII Soft Foam **Laptop Computer** Wrist Rest! (Office Product) The description says it works for Macs, but that's really misleading. The window in the center is far too small. I have a MacBook Pro, without a button, just a touchpad. So I thought it wouldn't be a problem. However, using the wrist rest, I found that I kept constantly accidently clicking on the screen. I ended up having to cut the connecting strips, turning it into two separate pads. Now it works ok, but I wish I had just bought two separate pads to begin with, since now the pads have jagged edges from using scissors on them. Very ugly. :( Help other customers find the most helpful reviews Was this review helpful to you?
22 of 23 people found the following review helpful student approved, no more RSIs, September 13, 2009 This review is from: Intelligels� GENII Soft Foam **Laptop Computer** Wrist Rest! (Office Product) As a student, I spend HOURS in front of my laptop at a time. I was developing RSI's after studying intensely for a previous exam, so I did some research online, read product reviews, and eventually came across this (as well as the "Latosta Portable Laptop/Notebook Stand"). Used together, I've had no more wrist or forearm strains, and I'm noticing a greater flow of blood to the skin to bottom of my wrists (which were getting darker and calloused). Very much recommended!!! One more thing, I just wanted to qualify their statement that this works with "ALL LAPTOP BRANDS & MODELS"--my laptop is a Lenovo X61T, and I had to modify my intelligels wrist rest in order so that I could access the mouse buttons properly. I just cut out the thin part, which is supposed to border the top of your touchpad, quite easily actually with a normal pair of scissors.
