A finger-mounted computer stylus is provided. The stylus is pivotable between an operative position extending forward past the middle knuckle along a backhand area and an inoperative position wherein the stylus does not extend forward past the middle knuckle. Magnets along the upper surface of a base and associated pivot arm removably secure the stylus in the operative and inoperative positions by way of a magnetic connection adapted to be disconnected with a snap of the wrist.
