Digital uses
For Thierry, the computer is an exclusively professional tool. On average, at work he spends 6 hours a day in front of his PC, so at home he avoids turning it on. In addition, his musculoskeletal disorders make it very painful to use a mouse, even vertical, and navigating from a keyboard remains a sweet dream!
In his private life, the mobile phone is his only digital tool, he uses it for everything: communicate, manage his diary, go shopping, record a concert, take pictures of birds, or activate a metronome. Indispensable to his life, he did not hesitate to invest in a high-performance model.
