Optical mouse would need one more thing 27-May-02 2:14 27-May-02 2:14  It should have some "hovercraft" system, so it would hover over the table. I am really annoyed by cleaning it from junk that comes on the bottom side! Re: Optical mouse would need one more thing Peter Weyzen28-May-02 6:00 Peter Weyzen 28-May-02 6:00  I thought that I'd be able to stop cleaning my mouse, once I got an optical mouse. But it seems I clean my mouse even more often now -- as the 'pads' on the bottom of the mouse collect every bit of dirt off of my desk. It is less work to clean it, but I still clean it every other day. Optical fuzz Mauricio Ritter27-May-02 1:40 Mauricio Ritter 27-May-02 1:40  It´s strange... I got an optical mouse and all the fuzz is sticking on table and not on the mouse. I´ve to use a scrapter from time to time to remove the fuzz from my table.

I need to scrape the pads at least once a week. Boy.

Dunno whether you have witnessed that here, but meanwhile more and more developers here have an optical mouse For all who do not understand the statement above: Stefan has worked in my company since he left a few month ago.

Oh Ok, Its just every week I try to guess what the Poll will be. For a while I saw a trend with a marketing motive of some form. (nothing sinister with that either) Anyhow this Poll makes me remember how many weeks there are in a year, and how having a new Poll every week must present a challenge to you.

The first of these is a Bob mouse, constructed of a new plastic that does not attract fuzz. Being the most frequently used function, Bob's large eye will be a left button, and the smaller a right button. Bob's navel will serve a dual purpose, one as an optical scroll wheel activated by the ridges of fingerprints, the other as a repository for what tiny bit of fuzz the device will inevitably collect. Rumor has it that we can expect to see them in stores in time for Christmas. "What is it?" and he said, "I don't know. Let's kill it." - Ed Gadziemski Opticals dominate!! Michael Dunn26-May-02 21:37 Michael Dunn 26-May-02 21:37  Very pleased at the results so far. After using the MS opticals for years, I hate going back, not just because the optical has nicer motion, but because the Intellimouse Explorer is big and fits my hand perfectly. That makes me think - don't you feel dumb when you're using some other type of mouse and you slap your thumb against the side, trying to click the non-existant side buttons? --Mike-- Just released - RightClick-Encrypt - Adds fast & easy file encryption to Explorer Like the Google toolbar?

I think the Intellimouse Explorer is GREAT; other mice feel childish and under-endowed when you're used to the real thing. Phil
