Abstract: A finger controlled actuator for a mouse or other personal computer device for providing pressure to force sensitive resistor circuitry to provide for scrolling or other like control functions on and for a personal computer, wherein the actuator has specially surfaced, such as ribbed, and configured surfaces, such as saddle like in shape for cradling the finger of a personal computer user and allowing for satisfactory gripping between the flesh of the finger and the surface of the actuator to prevent slippage in any one of multiple directions about both the vertical and horizontal directions or some quadrant of both directions, while providing for comfort to the finger and hand of the user and for self orienting of the finger relative to actuator and the mouse body for proper control and operation, for example, the scrolling friction.
