He replies: Quote "What part of "all" do you not understand. All of them." So the follow up is: Quote "Coudl you name a few, so I could research them and your claim? Thanks in adavance."

Also enjoyed the comment about Chris Reeve: "Still waiting for Christopher Reeves (sic) to rise up again and walk."  Hmmm, could have something to do with the fact that he's DEAD.  Then again, we're all awaiting the resurrection, aren't we?

As I mentioned before – I had to remove the plastic cover to be able to use it for and it still sometimes fails to send the right keypress. admin said on August 9th, 2010 , 5:43 pm No, the joystick tested out fine. Either there is something mechanically wrong with your component, the cover was installed backwards, or you are using it incorrectly. You should be able to tell which of the three is applicable when your replacement mouse arrives. In the meantime, we would recommend making sure you have the cover on the right way. The thicker part of the receptacle should be towards the back of the mouse. We have had two confirmed cases of the cover being assembled backwards. -------------- "Richardthughes, you magnificent bastard, I stand in awe of you..." : Arden Chatfield "You magnificent bastard!
