Duo-wizzards, Thanks! Cleaning -what a novel idea. Never thought I could dismantle that track-ball but then it did come lose. (C-clockwise, I'll remember that.) It works fine now. The batter has never worked, but those copper leads look pretty good. They're all *pretty well* lined up, so it's probably the battery. One message mentioned cracking the battery case and putting in new ones. This sounds kind of fun --and now that I'm mechanically APT... Am I going to find reg. recharchable AA batteries inside? Does anyone know where I might be able to get an owner's manual for this machine? I've heard that the batteries were always a problem for this model and that you only get 2-3 hours of life. Any chance of getting something to recharge a battery that handles 220 voltage (India). best, Tim On Tue, 21 Mar 2000 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: -- ---------- Duo/2400 List, The friendliest place on the Net!
