Finally bought a decent mouse. This thing eats batteries and constantly disconnects. Gonna put it on the floor, pour gas on it and do a Jimi Hendrix on it. Next up is the wireless keyboard - the one with glass laminate. I thought guy was doing me a favor when he offered these up with the Mini he sold me. Now I know why he gave them away.

Sometimes you don't get what you pay for. I've been using the same $20 Microsoft mouse for 5+ years. One AA battery that probably lasts 3-4 months. The damn thing just works.

If you say so.

I have the wireless trackpad and just replace the batteries every few months, and I'm on it quite often. I have a wireless mouse (the new generation with the glass top) and use it when I'm re-charging the trackpad. It works well too.

I used to use a variety of Logitech mice with programmed buttons that did all sorts of things.

In all fairness, this mouse is 8 years old. This is the one button mouse that caused some controversy when it came out. I've been pretty patient with this mouse. It's BT 1.1.

I'm sorry, but this is a bit like me complaining that I signed up to marry a 29-year-old in 1998 -- god damn it -- and and now all of a sudden she's 45! I want my money back ...

But it's been this way the whole time. It's completely crapping out on me now, I expected that.

      PGA Tour Makes Sweeping Changes Starting in 2028

      By boogielicious · Posted

      Interesting changes. The idea of relegation and promotion have always been there in a different form (getting and losing your card etc and qualifying for bigger events) but it looks like they want to define it better for top tier events. The Tour has always had A and B level events (and even lower). It will be interesting what they choose as the Challenger Series events and whether some tournaments go to the Challenger Series that used to be prestigious. Not sure how the networks will take to this knowing they have “Challenger” Series events defined that way now. Also, I’m not happy that John Henry and Theo Epstein are involved. Look what Henry has done to the Red Sox.

      I have been debating getting a launch monitor of some sort, if only so I can re-figure my shot zones (I haven't actually mapped them in years) and also to practice distance wedges at home.  I have to see if this works with either my current setup, or what my setup would be if I move it to the garage.
