We used to get bored so we'd flip our mice over and see who could navigate the screen faster by actually rolling the ball. @mrbee: I plan on doing this to one of my coworkers this year on April Fool's day... I don't know if she'll think to flip it or not.

To my surprise, it was a laser mouse! And by surprise, I mean that I was mostly surprised at how dumb I am sometimes. Do you remember when computer mice had balls inside of them? Did you ever blow the dust out of them, Nintendo cartridge style?
