I know those things all too well....

The only mouse worse than an HP plastic mouse is the tiny Targus
wireless ones that come with their computer bags.

A long time ago I bit the bullet and bought myself some real input
devices:

A range of Logitech mouses
A Rat 7
Basic microsoft keyboard (hey, they DO make good hardware)

and my prized possession: a Dell-branded Model-M craftily lifted out of
the corner where it was hiding and no-one knew what it even was :-)
