Plus, my old MX900 (<3 Bluetooth, hate that Logitech has abandoned it) has a wonky left button, where it randomly (and more and more often) double clicks instead of single-clicking. Yuck. Then I'll just move the MM over to "portable duty" w/ my PowerBook.
That happened for a while with my old MS Intellimouse. I fixed it by jamming the thing on fingernail clippers that's used for cleaning under your nails underneath the mouse button. There was a little bit of dirt/dust/gunk that had worked there over a few years worth of heavy use and the button made a bit of a 'pop' sound when I did it. Started working perfectly normal afterwards. Did the same way to clean out my mousewheel that had started to stick a bit after years of use.

Right now I own the intellimouse I mentioned above (for an idea of how old it is, I bought it with the $50 Best Buy gift certificate that came with my 8x4x32 Iomega CD-RW drive that didn't have Buffer Underrun protection) which I use with my laptop and when I play games. I also own the Logitech MX700 wireless keyboard/mouse which I like a lot, although they both tend to have problems when playing games. They keyboard will just stop responding for a few seconds occasionally, and the mouse has a bad problem with not detecting MouseUp actions, so I'm stuck firing my gun even after I've let go of the button, so I'll blow through a while clip when I really don't mean to.

Was thinking about upgrading to a new wired mouse that has the ability to change DPI settings from on the mouse, but I'm just too cheap and haven't played a PC game in months. =/

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Haha, that would be the best tech support phonecall ever. Just sitting there ten minutes with an operator while you click your mouse mercilessly.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
