Has your daughter gone back?
Did you have a good visit with her?
Just got home, hooked up and fired up the work laptop...
...and I think the mouse is fine. I apparently zapped the laptops's USB ports. *\>:-(
So, "my" laptop still hasn't gone out for repair, and now the "loaner" is not in a good way (I've been limping along for a while with a problem in the WiFi setup utility) and I really dislike touchpads. Not a good day.
