Re: [CGUYS] COMPUTERGUYS-L Digest - 31 Mar 2008 - Special issue (#2008-232)

2008-04-01 Thread MrMike6by9
I have a Logitech bluetooth mouse for my MBP that uses rechargable AAA
batteries. It comes with a USB cable to tether the mouse to the laptop for
recharging when batteries get low. I often prefer to use my stand-alone
charger. This looks like an updated version of the one I have been using at
home.for about a year. I can verify the model # tonight.

 Subject: In the market for a mouse

 My new (2-year old) MacBook Pro touchpad is driving me crazy.  It had
 been my intention to work with it until I got it down-cold, but I'm
 ready to hang it up.  I have to do a lot of right-clicking while
 working with Win-XP and when I do the three-finger click, the cursor
 sometimes jumps to another part of the screen.

 I doubt there's any work-around - I think the answer is to just get a
 windows compatible mouse.  Any suggestions?

Just left-click+hold and drag the pinned icon of your choice to where 
you want it and then release. It will show where it is going to land 
with a black bar.

Simply drag them into the order you want.
