That's actually quite an ingenious solution to the problem, I wonder if it's something generic enough that it could be marketed. It may not be a proper cure, or even an elegant solution to minimising the impact of Parkinsons tremors, but anything is an improvement.

(and yet they still used powerpc mac as xbox 360 devkit) And that transferred over to Gates' family - they are not allowed to use non-microsoft computers/phones/tablets.
Having had a great-grandma who died of severe Parkinsons, this video really hit a soft spot in me. Her reaction brought tears to my eyes.
