Anyone know why mice go bad?
I don't mean dirt in the mechanism, I mean the jerky, patchy behaviours that
some mice begin to exhibit after varying periods of time.
Sure, I know that a busy CPU can affect them too, but I've seen this
flakiness occur when nothing has been running, background or otherwise.
Like yesterday.  Went to fix an email problem for a customer and she had a
crazy mouse. Looked inside - no dirt.  Checked the connection - no probs.
But the mouse still wouldn't behave.
Sold her a new mouse - voila!  No problems - customer over the moon.  Thinks
I'm brilliant.
Well....I can't be.  Cos I can't tell her why the first one crapped out.
