keyboard shortcut or using mouse?

I have been using and teaching computer training since before the mouse was around so we had little choice but to learn short cuts if we wanted to be fast and efficient.

Even though I rely on the mouse today I still use shortcuts to speed things up.

i am using both keyboard shortcuts and mouse.with mouse i like to scroll and move pointer from one place to other and clicking.
with keyboard shortcuts i like to select,copy,paste,and all that can i do with shortcuts.

Well it is nice to learn important basic keyboard shortcuts to save time. sometimes using time is quite time consuming specially if you haven't check your mouseball.. sometimes if its dirty, mouse usage can be tedious too hehe... so in my opinion, learning the keyboard shortcuts of what you always use is very useful.

for me as a pc technician, i mostly prefer using keyboard because when computers are down, mouse becomes useless especially when you're troubleshooting...

I used keyboard shortcut in most work in the computer. I used keyboard to shutdown, copy and paste, selecting, inserting tables, saving files, anything in microsoft word and some games. I used mouse for scrolling pages and the rest is by keyboard shortcuts. It saves time and you can work faster.
I learned to used keyboard shortcuts when the mouse of the computer i am using was not functioning anymore.

If my mouse fails to work, then I may be forced to use the shortcut keys only to shut down my system. I am not using shortcut keys except few basics like, copy,paste,cut, delete etc.,.Though using the shortcut keys are fastest method to work with the computers, I am not able to follow them..I feel mouse is much better and convenient method of working.Of course, I don't know much keys to use and I am not much familiar with the terms of computer.I happened to shut down my system twice as mouse failed to work within the past one year.That too, I did not know the procedure to shut down with the keys.My cousin taught me to shut down the system..After that I started to learn few shortcut keys.

I'm naturally a very fast typer, so I typically just use the keyboard to navigate on my computer. I think that it's much faster and easier, since you have to type on the keyboard anyway. It's nice to know them, as you'll want to know your computer inside and out, as you never know when you'll need that kind of information...lol. I hope everything worked out ok!

Well, its keyboard most of the times. I use them regularly. But there are so many things in a page which does not allow keyboard. I mean mostly flash games or some sites. Otherwise keyboard shortcuts are much faster than mouse.

We should use both, in order to be more eficient while working. Mostly, I use mouse. After copying something, usually I use ctrl+v, to paste it. So, the combination the two tools will make us more eficient in our work.

ye,it's good question.wherever you use keyboard shortcuts or mouse,it is very usefull.Because different stuff is different function.For example,while you play computer game,it is very convenience to use keyboard shortcuts.while you visit website,it is very convienience to use mouse.so,i think one thing is very important.Use right way to deal with right thing.
