It is nice that optical mice don't need cleaning as often as ball mice.

It's funny how some people like to boast about their high speed PC,
while others instead boast about how small/slow it is and still be
usable! My K6-266 died in Novmeber 2005 and my K5-75 was re-homed in
August 2004 to someone wanting to run DOS applications.
