cellioThe mouse on my machine at work has gone spastic over the last few days. I suspect it needs to be cleaned, but when I asked our sys admin about it (I couldn't see how to take it apart) he said he'd clean it and gave me another mouse.
Unfortunately, the replacement mouse is awful. It's too big for my hand. Using it hurts. I asked the sys admin to please give me my mouse back when he's done with it (or another of like kind), rather than just tossing it into the bin, so this will be fixed eventually. It's only been a couple hours, though, and already my wrist and hand really hurt. And this is a Windows shop, so there are a lot of situations where I really do have to use the mouse.
The previous mouse had no obvious label. (It had 2 buttons.) This one is a Logitech 3-button mouse. It is a little wider and a lot longer than its predecessor. I think it's also a little thicker. The previous mouse wasn't especially good, but it was a lot better than this.
I should probably just buy my own mouse for work -- then I can find something that's ideal for me, rather than just cheap in bulk. (I already bring in other personal hardware adaptations, so what's one more?) The (Logitech?) optical mouse I have at home is pretty good.
