It's okay to have a Mac but to like Microsoft products too. Don't support a company; support your own damn self, I say. Well played, people. And Werner, linking to some random Web site provides little in the way of support of your pedantic argument, whereas I summon the power of the "American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language, Fourth Edition": http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=mouses A good day to all.

I can't believe they do everything else right except for this, you'd figure after 25 years they'd learn. I have to agree, the Mac mices are one of the few disappointments nowadays with Apple.
