My ATARI dealer sold me a mouse for my STe 1040 which frequently starts to wander around the screen by itself - without me touching the mouse. The problem is of course that in some programs, if it pulls down a menu, the program will not respond to keyboard inputs. My dealer tells me this is common to all non-atari mice, and is due to "very strong signals from the mouse". In my opinion this has rather to do with "very much noise from the mouse". Should I accept what he says, or is this behavior of my mouse unacceptable? Any authorized opinions are very much appreciated. Thanks in advance! - Oddvar Tveito (e-mail: otv@nta.no)
