My little mouse is starting to malfunction. It is a cheap little "travelling" one from Logitech bought the day I got my laptop (since I hate touchpads) but I grew used to it and now I'm going to have to go run the gantlet so hated by the Luddite - trying to figure out what is good/not good for the replacement at a price I won't shudder and and refuse. Heck - when it comes to computer accessories, I know nada. And I usually default to "under $15 or so" just because I get overwhelmed (and also amazed) by the features and (ohmygod) prices of the little doodads.
If I can just nurse the danged thing through the holidays, maybe someone will rave/rant about their new (Christmas present) one and I'll have a clue. Come to think of it, I already have a little of a clue - can't go for cordless 'cause the Naval Air Station nearby screws up the signal (or whatever) but beyond that...maybe I should just buy another cheap Logitech. Other folks might bitch about it when they use my computer (they can't get used to the pointer randomly just bouncing to a corner whenever it takes a mood) but I'm already accustomed to it so at least it'd be the 'Devil I know'.
