Anyone got a spare computer mouse I could have?

[racefactory]

Gidday, anyone got a spare computer mouse lying around I can have on the North Shore of Auckland? YOU could be in for a free chance to ride a gsxr750!

How frustrating it is without one!

Ta!

[crazyhorse]

Sorry, no I haven't - but if I did, I'd jump on my GSXR 1000 and deliver it all the way to you :)

[MSTRS]

$10 buys you a new one at the shop, you know.

[racefactory]

Can't afford it mate, recession.

hey thanks crazyhorse, appreciate it.

well, the thought was there - even if the mouse wasn't - hope someone in AKL has a heart of gold and has one for you. my spare one ended up at my sons home - kinda guess its not coming back here :whistle:

[awayatc]

maybe somebody wants to go halves with you.......

[crazyhorse]

On what?? the mouse or the ride?? :lol:

[Grasshopperus]

If you want to drive out to Papakura you can have a black USB optical mouse.

Of course, the petrol cost of the travel will probably be the same as something from the warehouse.

[Blackshear]

I'll go out tomorrow and buy you a cheapie for a quick ride :mellow:

[racefactory]

Thanks guys looks like someone's got one :)

Didn't know they sell em at warehouse. Had a look in DSE.... 40 bucks for entry level stuff. Fuck that.

Yes I know my name is trademe but I can't be arsed with trademe and getting it posted etc.

[racefactory]

just keeping the options open. entry level n stuff.

or even cheaper http://pricespy.co.nz/product.php?p=418096

[Gremlin]

I'd honestly skip the cheap mice, don't perform properly, move when there is no movement etc.

[Suntoucher]

Gone, family member claimed it.

[YellowDog]

No luck? Have a spare MX500 you can have. Am in Browns Bay til 4 tomorrow, albeit I don't wake up til about 12. 8 buttons but Logitech doesn't make software for Vista/7 for it. So it will work as a regular 5 button mouse but I don't think you can program the other three if you're using Vista/7.

It was a decent gaming mouse though, 800dpi sensor.

Don't give it away, sell it on Trademe.

FWIW: Cheap optical mice are fine provided you have a consistent surface to run them over.

You don't want to get RSI / OOS from a poorly designed mouse. It took me over 2 years to recover from a wrist - arm injury from using a cheap mouse while contracting and doing a look of database work. The app required a lot of mouse work and once I knew I had a problem it was too late and just got worse.

I couldn't hold a full glass in my right hand, it cost me hundreds in rehab costs for an osteopath that ACC didn't fully pay for, plus time not working.

Go buy a mouse from one of the top manufacturers - pay the good dollars.

[crazyhorse]

But I can be there within a couple of hours............... zoom zoom, zoom :whistle:

Trackball Supremacy.

Can pry my Logitech Trackman from my cold, dead hands.

I thought trackballs were for amateur old guys who think ahving 1 makes them a CAD legend.

Nope, for people with limited desk space(great for laptops that are actually mobile) and not wanting to move their entire wrist/arm when the unused thumb can do it just as accurately(plus it's pretty good for FPS).

Also means it still works even if not on a solid surface, e.g. lying in bed watching a movie.

[Gremlin]

Thiiiiis is a mouse... adjustable weight and 3 quick-select adjustable cursor speeds, along with buttons, scroll wheel that runs free or clicks... mmm I loike. Could never use the trackballs, drove me nuts

Almost 2 1/2 years strong, only just having problems with clicking in the scroll wheel. Always free-spin-ftwin

Does that cause wrist injuries?

When you get one stick it up your arse and twist it around until you snag a piece of corn. Then give it to the kids and tell them it's a chuppa chupp.

Damn thanks for the offer. Too late.

Hiss- that mouse just doesn't pick up movement well at all. 'All over the place' is the best I can describe it as. Kind of like it's on drugs. Reminded me of the shitty old ball mice actually. Cheers anyway.

Hey mate, I'll be more than willing to buy you an intellimouse (USB or PS/2?) for a crack on the 750. Granted, I am a 20 yearold male with a 2 year learners :innocent:

EDIT: Can't seem to find any at local shops.

Formatted ya PC recently? the free spin is to do with software actually.
I found that without the software you can override it by clicking down the wheel (like mouse button). goes from free-wheel to clicky-click wheel.
Still the best mouse I have ever used.......but gen II of this mouse comes out next year.

Gen II is already out, unless you don't mean the MX performance or whatever. click-to-click/free-spin is working fine, I just meant that I have it set to free spin no matter what and love it. I die on the inside when I have to use a friends mouse.
