Isn't that black gunk that builds up on the rollers the same gunk which you find on steering wheels on cars and other places which come in contact with hands extensively? My theory is that if your mouse using style doesn't include resting your hand on the desk while you slide, your mouse will stay cleaner. The gunk is simply skin flakes, grease, and sweat compacted into an appetizing paste by the mouse roller:-). In other words, maybe the smaller mouse just makes you rest more of your hand on the desk, causing greater gunk buildup. -Christian -- ARPANet:wiedmann@eos.arc.nasa.gov UUCP: who knows!eos!wiedmann Disclaimer: These opinions are mine, only mine, and completely mine.
