Million Dollar Idea

This is so obvious, why didn't I think of it before? Your mouse ball and plastic little rollers inside can pick up more dirt/dust items off the 5"x5" area of your desk than you could ever imagine anyway (at least it did before you replaced it with an optical mouse, totally missing this opportunity) -- So what would happen if you created a vacuum-cleaner device that consisted only of mouse balls and plastic rollers? This would surely pick up most of the dirt in the universe. Investors, anyone?

You haven't mentioned the cat-hair problem. My observations have determined that roller mice always contain cat-hairs, even when no cat exists in the immediate vicinity of the device. This I suspect is related in some cosmically ironic way to Schoedinger's conjectures, which is, of course, beside the point. Failing to deal with the cat-hair problem would probably result in unsuspecting customers receiving their new devices fully clogged with cat-hairs - what S. would surely call an undesirable 'out-of-the-box' experience. Neat idea though. :)

Maybe you could design a mouse that could occasionally cough up its own fur ball... "The Yahoos refused to be tamed."

Yes, I think a company tried that once. They were doing great, until they decided they were going to enter the optical mouse market. :doh: :-D An expert is somebody who learns more and more about less and less, until he knows absolutely everything about nothing.

You're in the middle of playing CounterStrike: Source and suddenly it starts it's cleaning cycle... Somehow I feel the cries of "Hey no fair, you shot me while my mouse was coughing up a furball" won't cut it. :~

lol OTOH, you don't use optical mouse for some CS action? :rolleyes: Reminds me photo in local newspaper : "Pro Gammer" playing CS ... left hand on arrow keys, mouse in right hand :-D David Never forget: "Stay kul and happy" (I.A.)

I use an optical mouse, but I can't stand CS or CS:S. I played the latter for about a week after finishing HL2 before I got completely bored out of brain with playing the same damned scenarios on the same damned maps with the same damned people. What a boring existance it is to play CS.

I'd have to agree, that would be a very unfortunate time to have a "mouse cleanout"... My current mouse locks up enough anyways, even without the cat hair included. :sigh: On the other hand, at least my mouse lockups force me to finish my current map I've been working on in CounterStrike (Source), that way the mouse doesn't matter. :-D But yes, the desk-cleaning mouse does sound like a great idea! (There I go, I finally managed to get on-topic) My sig: "It isn't a bug, it's a feature I didn't know about." - Programmer2k4 Oops, Programmer2k4 is now old...I should have thought about that a year in advance.
