Computer mice, bloody tiny, bought a new one yesterday and im not sure if im meant to operate it with tweezers under a bloody microscope.

We'll ignore the fact that when I opened the packaging it dropped straight out in to a pint of squash. But the rant isnt about about that and once rinsed and dried it on the radiator it worked find.

However you appear to need the hands of a fiver year old to operate it.

Mice, too small, anyone recommend me a man sized mouse for my man sized hands?

Ta.

[i]it dropped straight out in to a pint of squash.[/i]

Either

a) it shrank when wet
b) you bought a laptop/netbook mouse
or
c) this is you;

*Googles Wireless Optical Rat...*

The one I picked up yesterday was on impulse at Aldi as it was next to the tills for a couple of quid so I thought I'd give it a go.

However all the mice I have / used seem really small these days, even the dell one at work could do with being 15-20% bigger - used to have a Microsoft Explorer mouse but it expired and the new version is 'more compact'.

Bah.

Definitely go to PC world and browse the mice. They go from fingermouse sized laptop ones to huge whole hand things.

i thought a good question as looking at how much they eat I wouldn't be surprised to find something that looks like a baby hippo in the cellar one day soon but back on topic I think its since they lost their balls

Jerremy Beadle said the same thing, but on the otherhand, it was massive.
