Gah, I've been using the school computers so much that I keep trying to use the scrolly-wheel on my wheel-less home mouse. Maybe I should get a wheely mouse.

I've developed a nervous twitch where I scroll pages up-and-down-and-up-and-down.

Just warning you.

Oh yeah, and I also try clicking the side buttons on my work mouse, which doesn't have any.

I think that'd be wheely useful :)

...

Would you like more cheese on that joke?

Yes you should. make it a cordless optical wheel mouse while you're at it :)

Someone explain to me the point of a cordless mouse again? (My reasoning goes - you need a flat surface to use it on anyway, so you must be sat at a desk, so why bother with wireless?) But I think optical is definitely worth it.

I have a logitech cordless optical wheel mouse and it's utterly lovely. I use it in bed, on my matress (does setting up my computer where it is specificly so i can use it in bed make me a geek?)

you computer needn't be near your wireless device. my tower lives near my monitor as the monitor lead isn't very long but i try and sit as far from my monitor as i can thus cordless things are handy :)

What's the point of a cordless mouse?

Geek status![1]

Um, yeah, that's it.

Wireless network?

That sounds fancy ... and expensive.

Get a wheely-mouse... you know you want to!

I noticed the loss of the wheely-ball when I was on holiday using hotel computers, and it was mad. My finger kept on feeling for one. I think it's an addiction.
