Computers for ambidexters – future evolution

It seems that there are strong limiting beliefs that people using computers have only one main hand involved, right or left. But it is not truth. There are a lot of people who use both hands, like typists, basketball, volleyball players etc. And they are just normal people using two hands technique for many years yet.  And if we look at the fertility statistics we will see that more and more people are born as recognized ambidexters.

So, if it is possible, I would suggest that IT companies started to issue software and hardware for ambidexters, something like:

Symmetrical keyboards, two simultaneously connected mouses for left and right hand, symmetrical search buttons etc.

It will be commercially beneficial as it will open you possibility to replace the old software and hardware, to promote new concept as suitable to improve creativity and productivity  and keep up with the evolution.

    True ambidexterity is demonstrated in <1% of the population - in comparison, lefthandedness is demonstrated in 10% of the population.  If you are truly ambidextrous, you should be able to use the current keyboard and mouse effectively.
