did that already...
That's what you get for too many cat shots. :P
Seriously, just get a new one, not much of an investment.
Send it to DAG or Youxin.
You think you're the only one? :p

Flush it down the toilet. That's the usual way to dispose of dead pets.
... that little ball thing stopped working a while back, I should get a new one really but I've sort of got used to it

i got a new mosue...a magic mouse...from apple...weird little thing actually...feels very different from my former mouse...
i wonder if it will change my surfing ways?
Congrats. The magic mouse is wonderful.
Logitech Mx510. That sucker just holds up for some reason. It's lasted longer than any other mouse in my house. Exterminator-proof. And it gets used and abused. I've seriously had it since like 2005 or something.
Magic Mouse is great though... enjoy it!
My dog eats Logitech mice. Doesn't care much for apples though.

Maybe it needs energy. Feed it some cheese.
Or get an optical mouse.

Funny, I hear that a lot when I play my tin whistle!
The magic mouse is great. I got sick of always trying to clean that little ball on the "mighty mouse".

That scroll nipple on the Magic Mouse seems to jam up pretty easily. We just replaced one with the Magic Trackpad, and it's much nicer once you adjust.

how many folks actually turn their mouse off at the end of a session or at the end of the day?

Funny you ask that... my daughter was just recently complaining about her magic mouse because it eats through batteries if she doesn't turn it off.
Now, she's 18, so take that with a grain of salt... Not sure what her definition of "eats through" is...
"turn it off at the end of the day" ... that's an interesting idea

I don't, too much of a turn-off.
You need a proper chrome hand crafted mouse from Germany, with regular service/CLA it will outlive you...

There's no off button on my mouse and no batteries to go through. I'm still using mice with cords. They usually cost around $10. Never understood the use of cordless mice. It's not like I need to navigate my computer from the other side of the room. If I'm close enough to see what's on the screen I'm close enough to use a mouse with a cord.
