If I had one, I wouldn't be open to selling it. Oh, if only I had one. We could get drunk together and pick up chicks.

My monkey did.

Sounds good to me. Looks like we'll have to find a new strategy though.

An all-singing, all-dancing monkey would probably be too much of a pain anyway. Unless it could be trained in butlery skills. Hmm... A smart monkey that could do all the important intelligent tasks

.

On a side note, I found what was wrong with my modem

. It seems the plug had halfway worked loose of it's socket. If there weren't so many wires I would have found it earlier.

Who are you?!

Something's wrong with one of my USB connections. My mouse just randomly stops working quite often. I'm wondering if it's the internal one's on my computer, or the external hub my mouse and keyboard are attached to... More problems.

Fiberfar is one of those crazy northern European folks.

Yes, always a headache

. I suppose you have more USB devices than ports in your PC, right? Can't you just add more and see if it works better then?

Hmm, I see Maggy hasn't given up on alcohol.

Or on kitten's.

I do, one more to be precise. I have 2 internal, with a mouse, keyboard and wireless internet adapter each needing one. So, as far as I can tell, it lies somewhere between my mouse and the 1 internal USB port. The keyboard acts up rarely, the mouse at least a few times an hour of me using it. The other internal port is fine though.

Gotta love USB. I'm glad I upgraded my case, I always got fed up of reaching around the back to plug a Flash drive in, which is why I got a hub too.
Now I have 4 on the back and 2 on the front. The 2 on the front through a cable connected to the motherboard.
Just think, at least your mouse and keyboard are not wireless, you probably would have an even worse time.

I just got a new mouse, and I'm going crazy with the scroll on it. Already in the last five minutes I've been to like ten different game forums.

First time with a mouse with that scroll thing on it?

I bought a nice set a few months back. It was like 100 dollars, and it sucked worse than my worn out mouse that goes screwy. Couldn't take it. Looked pretty and cool, but definately didn't function well.

The cute girl behind the counter happily took it back and gave me a refund though.

Nope, but it's the first one that actually works.

I don't know how I coped without the scroll wheel

. Oh, I know, they hadn't been invented yet

.

Try not to break it though.

Oscuro_Sol · Post by **Oscuro_Sol** » Sun Jul 24, 2005 2:57 pm

That's what happened to my old one. I didn't break it though. *shakes fist*

Well enjoy then.

@Ravager, It really is a bummer when you have to go back with one without it. It almost seems faster to just use the keyboard for everything instead.

Thanks, did you know that you can switch forums by rubbing the scroll against your face?

Ravager · Post by **Ravager** » Sun Jul 24, 2005 3:05 pm

Seeing as we are comparing hardware...

I bought a Trackball Optical, it's nice. The problem is, I could not leave the ball alone (I may be kinesthetic or something...). So the ball must have got covered in dust and so did the sensors in the mouse. I had to keep cleaning it out because it stopped the ball moving smoothly

. I probably should have known better before I bought it

There's a lot of things that can happen by rubbing things against my face, what's your point Kitten?

@Ravager, you don't want the little trackball at the bottom, just the laser thing. I had that same problem and threw the thing at the wall once I bought my laser mouse.

Oscuro_Sol · Post by **Oscuro_Sol** » Sun Jul 24, 2005 3:09 pm

Haha.

Tsk. You have too much time time on your hands. Calm down

I had this nice transparent Intellimouse that I'm using now on my mum's computer, then I bought a laser scroll wheeled mouse and then the trackball. I thought it would be better and for a while it was. Then I swapped back to my second mouse. It certainly took a while to get used to it and then a while getting used to a normal one.

I'm going to bed now. Talk to you later. Have fun.
