Why? Never did I say that it would be tied around the arm like
a tourniquet. Imagine a "snap on" accessory that attached to
a shirt sleeve, for example.
I'm just talking about position...not a specific type of mount.

Good point...though, remember that if it was attached to the skin it
could have sensors on the back, and monitor you for signs of just
that type of problem.
Remember...this *is* a general purpose computer we're talking
about. It's just a matter of providing the right interface and a little
bit of programming.
