Guy calls me up and complains about his mouse not working well, so I take a new optical mouse and go switch it out with his old ball mouse (which I threw in the trash). He proceeds to throw his hands into the air and praise me like I had forgiven him of his sins. :p

Anywho, I feel a lot better about myself now :D

Did you tell him to look into the red light every once in a while to make sure it was clean?

I've experienced this before. A ball mouse thats dirty really can make your entire working experience a living hell.

It is sad that people can't figure out how to take 1 minute to scrape off the rollers on a ball mouse.

My little brother did this in a typing class in HS and got detention. Teacher (65 or so) thought it was vandalism of school property!
