"Me too!" I say. Well, I haven't LOST any yet, but I've noticed the potential failure point looking like it was definitely going to be a problem soon. On a home iMac DV in Massachusetts and a college lab PowerMac G4 in Nebraska for those still following the geographic conspiracy theory. I guess the "thinner than a human hair" style cable on the pro optical mouse may make a fashion statement, but personally I'd prefer something with a thicker cord (and more buttons and a scroll wheel, of course.) -John -- The iMac List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
