    Nyet.

    There will be no Kommie Keurig activities at L5. It would be unamerican.

    I'm just too stupid with that damn 500 year old percolator thingy, and it takes me too damn long to get the coffee in me when I wake up!! I like to have my coffee in my belly about 3 minutes after crawling out of bed, using the bathroom, and getting my coffee.
    Pffft. Weren't you just commenting a few days ago about how much more chest hair you grew while up here in AK?

    That's because you didn't have the extra estrogen added to your coffee by a Kommie Keurig.

    My new on, on the settings page, shows an approximate time for batteries, and it shows 548 days. Even one year would be more than acceptable for me.
    Yeah, they've really come a long ways in the last 10 years for efficiency on wireless components. 1 AA battery per year is definitely acceptable.

    But I still have a couple of wired LED mice around here, if for some reason I need it. I should probably throw those away, I can always just use the touchpad in a pinch.

    Commies are a rough subject today! LOL Ok, ok, I stick with the perkie, it is your cabin after all, I'm just a guest in heaven.

    I have like 8 chest hairs. None grew in Alaska. I only grew lots of facial hair and lost a lot of weight! But I felt like I survived and adventure!

    I have 6 mice right here in my left drawer. 4 of them are wired. 2 wireless. Don't ask why I don't toss them as I guess one or 2 spares would be enough. But I'm a pack rat when it comes to computer parts!

    I have this one, primarily because it's big. Just don't like a small mouse...

    A little experience under the belt and I'm liking this mouse more and more. So easy to use without all the movement, and you're also holding your hand in a more natural position. With that said, you literally CAN lean back and put the mouse in your lap, and still use the trackball and buttons the same.

    2 thumbs up, so far.

    I switched to a mouse very similar to this about 2 years ago? It helped my wrist and thumb tremendously. Now when I use a standard mouse it is annoying.

    That's what it's main selling point is, that you rest your hand in a more natural position while using the mouse, and the trackball helps eliminate any future issues with things like carpal tunnel.
