I had a 1040 ST for about two years, and had no trouble to speak of with
any aspect of hardware.  In November, I traded up to a Mega ST2.  As
many of you know, I like to use Gulam and prefer using keystrokes to
using the mouse, so my mouse does not get a lot of wear. 

The day after I read the above messages, I was using the mouse and
noticed that the arrow liked to go to the right but not to the left.  I
did what I had done several times before with the mouse on the 1040,
clean the lint from the ball and the rollers.  I even took off the cover
and cleaned the rollers and disk from above. 

But this time the problem persists.  I have not mis-treated the cord,
which lies slack on my desktop, so I doubt broken wires in this case. 

Now, I am worried.  Any other suggestions?  Since this is a "one way"
problem, I suspect a diode in the motion detection circuit inside the
mouse.  Any insight or suggestions would be appreciated.
