  4. What can boost to for people with disabilities? Nick Harrington, student If I can do it, you can too. Hi, I’m an 11 year-old quad who goes to school. I use a laptop computer. I used to use a mouth stick and hit one key at a time. Now, with the Boost Tracer, I can type, play games, and do my homework faster and have my mouth free to talk - and I like to talk.For computer games, I need to move exactly where I want when I want, and with the Boost Tracer I can move right where I want without that mushy feeling that some of the other head pointers have.I like to take my laptop outside a lot. Unlike the other head pointers, the Boost Tracer works in sunlight, and I don’t need some big, heavy battery to make it work. Sincerely,Nick Harrington http://www.boosttechnology.com/tracer_description.html
