[WEB4LIB] Re: of mouse balls and such

[Drew, Bill]

I am also one of those that computers usually behave for when I am trouble
shooting them.  The biggest problems I see are among some of our staff that
have extremely fast typing skills.  One head circ. clerk can easily type
over a hundred words a minute.   I have also seen many of them nervously toy
with the mouse pushing it around when waiting for search results or waiting
for a program to load.  While I am told by the real techies in Computer
Services that this doesn't make any difference, many problems disappear when
users leave the mouse alone.  I also find that they say they are doing the
same thing I am, most times they aren't.
