Unplug monitor? Haven't you read the debate on the back of Computing (backbytes) raging about this very subject?

super_si

No why? just it gets hot 9am - 12pm

mark_h

How about getting a mains adapater for the mouse?

chiark

...or a little lead that connects it to the computer and means that it doesn't need batteries?

My mate works in a battery factory, so I get all batteries from him for 10p a go.

Pity he's being made redundant soon....****

Sod all of that, I have had all of the MS optical mice, including the wireless ones and the Logitech that has already been mentioned, the MX-700 beats all of them into the ground!! IMO, of course

Silly price on at the mo too,

£47 from dabs for example

Got mine this week and after getting used to the increased speed and accuracy, I love it
