They're great as pet substitutes, relatively safe objects for throwing around the office, or desk ornaments. What's more, they like dust even more than the Mac screen does! A few swipes across the screen with your Koosh ball and it's sparkling clean. Who needs semi-permanent solutions like anti-static chemicals when you can use a lovable, conversation-starting Koosh ball? Mine lives on top of my Mac permanently. I wash it with soap and water every few months. 8-D, -- Earl M. Williams ?8^) "No matter where you go, there you are."
