Everyone keeps on talking about the Golden Mouse but no gives the frigging
address or phone number of where to order it from! Unfortunately, 
"What's This Computers" only seems to carry the Atari Mouse and they sometimes
take a bit of time in getting special orders.

BTW my mouse has been starting to lose the up direction. However I noticed
when i took off the cover and rolled forward and back that the ball was
slipping on the up motion. I cleaned the ball and it now works fine again.
I suspect that the spring in the support roller not strong enough to push the
ball tight up against the sensor rollers when rolling up or right.
