Dead mouse


Someone in the office came upon a bunch of old computer stuff, which they took over to me to identify. Among the junk was this jewel of computer accessories, the Apple Pro Mouse. Not a lot of computer mice actually pull off 'sexy', but this one did. The entire mouse is a button, but it works perfectly, with no missed clicks. Despite being a one-button no-scrollwheel-having oddity, I resolved to make it my primary pointing device, even though I'm on Windows at work, but sadly, it's near death. It identifies as a USB device, then dies. Then appears, then dies. The mighty mouse is okay, but this is truly one of Apple's triumphs.
