Probably the best thing about an optical mouse is that there are no moving parts which gives less chance of breakage. But with an optical mouse, you need a special mouse mat - and if you lose or damage that the mouse is useless. I dont think its worth the extra cash for the optical mouse though... -=+ Steve Krulewitz +=- -=+ Fair Lawn, NJ +=- -=+ stevek@amiglynx.UUCP +=-
