ever since I got my computer back (thanks cousin Mike!) my mouse has been very difficult. I've had to swipe and swipe, tried different surfaces, everything I could think of to get it to make the arrow move across the screen the way I wanted it to.
Well.
Tonight i decided to investigate a bit more. I took the mouse apart a bit, cleaned out the little bits of schtuff stuck around the roller ball, put it back together--nothin. Still sucky. Tried again, only this time I noticed a glob of lint on a little verticle bar on the right hand side of the mouse's innards. Hmmm, thought I. Probably not the problem, but I worked it out of there and guess what?
Obedient mouse!
Yay. I love when I fix stuff. It's manly.
