I've never much liked using a mouse. I "grew up" on MS-DOS. Got WAY too used to doing everything on the keyboard. When I moved to Winders, I started using the mouse, but still didn't like it much. I moved to a tablet, and love it. Then, I moved to a B/W G3 and love the tablet AND the computer. For a mouse, I put the hockey puck in the closet and plugged a Logitech Trackman with the optical ball into the ADB port. Being optically, it hasn't needed to clean it and hasn't given trouble with jumping, skipping, or not wanting to move. Although I still don't care much for using a mouse, when I use this one, it's much less of a hassle. -- "... and the people who knocked these buildings down will hear ALL of us soon." George W.
