What does the coin slot on that mouse do, give you another credit for space invaders?

...but it looks like a wheel to me... ;) Still, the thing reminds me of those trendy-looking kitchen appliances that never seem to be used for anything beyond decoration...

It's probably the same guy who designed the IMac's hockey puckmouse. Egads I can't imagine ever using that thing for more than a minute. X| --Mike-- Ericahist | Homepage | RightClick-Encrypt | 1ClickPicGrabber Latest art~!@#2rDFA#@(#*%$Rfa39f3fqwf--= NO CARRIER

It looks a bit like a tredy ash-tray. :-D

Careful what you ask for :) If you look really closely and squint a bit after giving the image 50% extra brightness then you can make out the actual wheely bit. But then again it actually looks like a USB powered mini-pizza toaster to me.

No idea, bryce is a better bet for useful information here. His contract finished last week or so and is looking for a new one as we speak. December 1998 I left my last fulltime programming job to move over to consulting beginning of 1999. It was a 40% pay increase and I got to travel to the US, UK, Hong Kong, Singapore and New Zealand. November 2001 I got the arse and was retrenched. For the next 13 months all I could get was the odd warehouse job doing manual labour for 1/3 of my previous wage. Then while doing work for the dole they offered me a position as a supervisor. The work sucks arse big time but at least it is consistently there and I have lucked out with a second job. It is systems administration work instalinf workstations, servers, networks, routers and stuff for a small company on the increase. They will be taking me on fulltime soon and I will be back in the computer game. Then I will have to get into programming again. As strange as it seems I was not able to focus on any programming or learning while trying to beat off collectors and such while unemployed. Now I have some work again it is taking up 60+ hours a week and I still can't get around to learning.
