Laura Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 I have a few questions: 1. Is there any sort of application that allows the user to manipulate more than one on-screen mouse by plugging in two mice? It would be vastly helpful for programming. 2. On the subject of mice, regardless of whether such an application exists or not, I was looking for one to replace my corded Microsoft Comfort Optical Mouse 3000. I glanced towards Bluetooth mice, and I was wondering how any of the users on these forums felt about them - educated opinions based on the pro vs. cons of Bluetooth and 2.4Ghz receivers or user experience. I believe Microsoft just unveiled a new ambidextrous Bluetooth mice, so that caught my eye. I think I would take solace in having a Microsoft mouse, as I had issues with my Logitech mouse working under OS X even after installing their control center and SteerMouse. Having a variety of programable buttons is almost needed. And, although perhaps unfavorable, I do pride my room on aesthetics. 3. Newegg allows you to return items "no-questions-asked," correct? I views their RMA policy and could not find a definite answer, at variance to TigerDirect (I purchased my monitor from them but they do not offer free shipping). EDIT: Perhaps not at the new Bluetooth mouse, I found this one on their website, though. It looks decent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sbrideau Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 I don't know about a program letting you have more than one mouse, but I do know that you can have more than one mouse plugged in and they both would work on the same onscreen mouse. I'm just wondering, what do you mean by programming, you mean coding? Cause I personnally find it much easier to use the keyboard shortcuts instead of the mouse.

dsavi Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 I know of such a program, however I've forgotten the name and it was for X. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldJoe Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 The 6000 is aimed at laptops, thus smaller. Wireless Mouse 5000 - 40$ Unfortunately, you don't got a couple of brands in the US that i'd otherwise recommend. J'adore aussi le sexe et les snuff moviesJe trouve que ce sont des purs moments de vieJe ne me reconnais plus dans les gensJe suis juste un cas désespérantEt comme personne ne viendra me réclamerJe terminerai comme un objet retrouvé Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dsavi Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 Wait, I found it... http://wearables.unisa.edu.au/mpx/ As said, only for X though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
