WUAS. Not a stupid reply when you factor in your time to do it. Just chuck it away and get a new one. Or live with the crud. Plus my experiences of taking things like this apart never go quite to plan. Something always buggers up and I end up having to buy a new one anywayComment

Factoring in your hourly rate only matters if you're doing it in work time. And even then I reckon 5min of my time doesn't bill at the £40 a good mouse costs.
Throwing something away simply because it's a bit mucky - it doesn't NEED cleaning, I would just prefer it be cleaner - is idiotic IMO.Originally posted by MaryPoppinsI'd still not breastfeed a naziOriginally posted by vetranUrine is quite nourishingComment

I probably have the same MS mouse as you do, had it for years and quite like as you can get used to anything. Scrape of a nail to get the crud off every coupla weeks keeps it working fine. I'm not worried about the micro life that might be having their own wee ecosystem on it as my keyboard is way filthier than my mouse.Comment
