Then you admit you have no idea what you're talking about? You speak from
emotion rather than fact. "Alias" wrote in message ... Unknown wrote: Post them for everyone to see right here. Even OE will let you reread the thread. It can even be configured to bottom post.

Please show me someone who removes the batteries from their travel mouse.

Problem with MS Optical Mouse
I have a Logitech wireless mouse that does not have an on-off switch.
I bought a small velvet bag to carry this mouse (and batteries) in after I pull the batteries out when traveling with it. "Bob I" wrote in message ...

I have a Microsoft wireless mouse that also has no on/off switch so I pull
the batteries from it whenever I travel :-) "Richard in AZ" wrote in message ... I have a Logitech wireless mouse that does not have an on-off switch.

... I have a Microsoft wireless mouse that also has no on/off switch so I pull the batteries from it whenever I travel :-) Instead of pulling the batteries just move one of them enough to put a piece of paper or plastic between it and the contact. Leave enough out to get a hold on it for removal. If you get lucky it might be possible to pull the insulator without removing the battery door. Mouse makes a good battery carrier that way too. YMMV |

YMMV I see we've got some clever dicks here! ;-) But if you are going to go to all this bother to save a penny, why not have a mouse with a proper tail in the first place? As far as my personal experience has been, the tail never gets in the way anyway. And you are far less likely to mis-lay the mouse, forget it or lose it. Why is the world so obsessed with doing everything wirelessly? But then what does one expect of a world obsessively practising "safe sex" at the expense of losing half the the joy of sex? ;-) -- choro ***** |
