Battery operated mouses are -EV

I have half of a 24 pack of AA batteries sitting in my desk, expressly for this reason.

If you were a woman I would have some ideas on what you used the other 1/2 of that 24 pack on.

If I were a woman, I wouldn't mess around with anything that requires only AA batteries!

To clarify, I started out with a full pack. Everytime a pair goes dead, I have spares sitting there for me. So, no -EV moments.

I know it has a cord but I use this....


Kensington Expert Mouse Trackball with Diamond Eye Optical Technology

I hate moving a mouse with or without a cord... you can pick one up at Tiger Direct for $79.99, if you have ever played Centipede for the older folks(30 & up, myself included) or Golden Tee for everyone else. It make thing much easier. I have it in the center of the table between both monitors.

Is that the scroll wheel surrounding the ball? I may need to pick one of those up. How large is the ball?

yes the scroll is around the ball and I would say it is slightly smaller than a pool table ball.

Pitch it out the window.

Having a good quality, comfortable wireless mouse/trackball +EV
Not having spare batteries -EV

next time that happens, take the batteries out and put them back in again, it will work temporarily
