To those who are advising me to get a new mouse (because of my inability to copy and paste), I have a laptop. A new mouse isn’t an option. So... I don’t post much, but I still am here reading everything.
I have a laptop also and I got an external keyboard and mouse and put that little thing (don't know what they call it) into the port on the laptop and use the keyboard, mouse, instead of the finger touch on the laptop. So why would you not have an option?
You could get an external mouse and plug into the laptop. I did that when I was using a laptop.
I have a laptop. My mouse plugs into it.
You can also get a wireless mouse.
I have a wireless mouse and I would not trade it for just about any other device. Plug in a small component about the size of a nickel into a USB port and turn on the wireless mouse and enjoy web surfing like never before. The cost is down to about $10, more or less.
