is it me or do M$ IntelliMice just fuck up after one year?
this has happened to me twice now, and also happened to a few friends.
i'm fairly sure the problem is located at the point where the cable connects to the front of the mouse [a loose connection or something]
i have stopped the problem for a while now using Blu Tak (y'know that stuff that you stick your posters up with), one of my friends does the same.

i was just wondering if this has happened to anyone else?

while we're on the subject of mice, can anyone recommend a good mouse, perferrably with a simular design to the IntelliMouse [i've gotten too used to it over the last couple of years].

I hear the Logitech MouseMan Optical is nice. I use a Wacom graphics tablet with included mouse - It seems to do the trick well enough.

I hadn't realized that it was a piece of hardware.

I've been using the software for it with any old 3 button mouse.

nothing can replicate the feel of the intellimouse...i wish they made the exact same style but in optical.

Same thing happened to my cousin's intellimouse.

Not really relevent, but i found an old mose with the number 420 on it, needless to say i kept in use for as long possible, worked a lot better than most of the newer mice today

ya teh older mice i find are better (prob just my computer) cuase when i jerked my optical it would start to spin so when i was playing a first person shooter every time i wanted to look fast it would fuck up.
