I can see now just how worn out the old one was! I can feel and hear this
new one clicking! I couldn't hear it with the old one. The mouse came with a new mouse pad too. They're really cool. Japanese I think. They have cartoon like pics of a cat and mouse on them. Now hopefully you won't be seeing any more blank posts from me. |

They are just to easy to throw against the wall and they shatter into tiny little pieces. The heavier metal track pad is something one does not grasp with the fingers. If I threw a track pad against the the wall, serious damage would occur to the wall and it takes an effort to pick the pads up. By the time I try and pick it up the emotion is gone. The cheap light weight mouse just do not last long. I went through three mice in three years. So far that track pad is going strong :) -- Enjoy Life... Nad R (Garden in zone 5a Michigan) |

All you have to do is get a laser mouse and never mess with those stupid balls again. I use a track ball. My favorite one was the Microsoft Trackball Explorer which MS stopped making long ago. A used one will cost you $100 to $500. The problem with those was the 3 steel bearing surfaces would wear and cause drag. I used to drill out the little bearings and pop in new ones.

Easy to clean and can do a lot more than the mouse or track balls. There are some extra things to learn like the two fingers for scrolling, single swipes for page up, down and sideways. Single or double taps for mouse clicks. Two fingers for rotating and more. Like the laptops, the mouse is going the way of the Dodo bird.

Then tiny little pieces :) Like I said before, my mouse has been dropped on the hardwood floor more times than I can count and it's still in one piece. It's 6-7 years old now and the wheel isn't working anymore, but I don't care. I got along just fine before they had mouse wheels and I have other ways to navigate, so I don't miss it. -- Today's mighty oak is just yesterday's nut that held its ground. |
