ReHi Juergen:
It is possible that I mistook somebody's identity. I see that [discuss] had
a lot of participants and it is a very plausible mistake.
Also, my idea was not intended to be directly related to open office or any
particular operating system. It is intended as a generic hardware accessory
that would be nice to see, but I do not have the capital to even start to
develop it.
At most, I might make eventually myself a prototype for my own use, unless
somebody uses my idea and commercialises it at an acceptable price and with
adequate support.
The mouse speed can be a nuisance in Windows, prior to XP, in Linux (several
distributions) and also in op sys installations.
As I said, this is not something that needs to be a physical part of a mouse
or trackball, but in a separate box, as a separate product. Mice and
trackballs are too small by nature to suit this degree of versatility.
A basic electronic project box, such as made by Hammond or Bud Radio would
be more suitable and a far simpler manufacturing approach.
And now I am off to chase more nuisance parts from the local parts store.
BTW Where is Sun located? (I suppose somewhere in the U.S.?)
Best Regards,
Bruce M.
Sun is SI Val, but the part that does OOo is in Germany.
