[WEB4LIB] Mouse problems

[Hassing, Tom]

Replacing with optical mice might make sense if the mouse
you're replacing is already wasted.

But what about perfectly good mice with their balls intact?

I've seen one computer lab sparingly use a little dab of
superglue to seal in a ball.  When it comes time for a
quarterly cleaning, the speck of glue is popped apart with a
twisting or twicking of a screw driver.  And then the thing
gets sealed shut again.

I would practice to determine the proper amount of glue
using mice with missing parts.  Using too much would not be
a good thing.
