I had my mouse that came with my computer fail last night.
It would only register movements in the X parameter, it would not register any Y movements(probably the result of too many games of Solitaire).
But, long story short, I went and bought a new mouse, just a cheapie PS/2 and I must say that it works better than the original and it's a lot quieter when you click with it.
Just going through a heap of new product catalogs, it's amazing to see how far the simple thing like a computer mouse has been developed.
Tell me what are your preferences in mice?. [Linked Image]
