I'm seriously thinking about bringing an optical mouse to work from home.

Does anyone else hate cleaning their balls?

I can't bring in an optical to work. The computer guys would have a hissy fit if I tried to do that.

So i'm stuck cleaning my balls...:(

We're stuck with HP Vectra P2/400's at work, only recently upgraded to W2k, still using fishbowl Compaq 21" CRT's which weigh like 100 lbs, and yes MOUSE WITH BALLS!

Spunky!!!

My balls are too small to clean, though. :(








Ball-bearings in my fans are what I'm referring to. :D

I emasculated my mouse long ago, when optical mice still sucked.

Thought this oldie would be appropriate here:

Abstract: Mouse Balls Available as FRU (Field Replacement Unit)

Mouse balls are now available as FRU. Therefore, if a mouse fails to operate or should it perform erratically, it may need a ball replacement. Because of the delicate nature of this procedure, replacement of mouse balls should only be attempted by properly trained personnel.

Before proceeding, determine the type of mouse balls by examining the underside of the mouse. Domestic balls will be larger and harder than foreign balls. Ball removal procedures differ depending upon manufacturer of the mouse. Foreign balls can be replaced using the pop-off method. Domestic balls are replaced using the twist-off method. Mouse balls are not usually static sensitive. However, excessive handling can result in sudden discharge. Upon completion of ball replacement, the mouse may be used immediately.

It is recommended that each replacer have a pair of spare balls for maintaining optimum customer satisfaction, and that any customer missing his balls should suspect local personnel of removing these necessary items.

To re-order, specify one of the following:

P/N 33F8462 - Domestic Mouse Balls
P/N 33F8461 - Foreign Mouse Balls
