My computer mouse, that is. The mice in the attic are just fine.
The cursor is freezing up about every minute or so, forcing me to pull the USB plug and reinsert it. In between freezes, it's jerky and moves either really slow or really fast.
I don't want to go buy a new mouse, because what I really want is to buy a new computer. An iBook, to be precise. I'm waiting on flex-spending reimbursement for my braces and jaw surgery, and then I'm going to try to swing the iBook. So if I buy a new mouse now, it will be a waste of money, because I don't need a mouse for the iBook. Although, if I intend to sell my used iMac, I suppose it will need a working mouse, won't it?
OK, I talked myself into it. I'll go buy a mouse tomorrow.

I love my 12 inch... er, iBook, that is.
I'm hoping for a 14-incher, myself. Heh.
Hate to say it but . . . it could be that you have a bad board (maybe a system board depending on the computer's configuration). I had a similiar problem, the system board finally gave up and had to get a new computer sooner.
Hope I'm wrong!!!
I hope you're wrong, too!
I'm off to buy a mouse ....
And tonight I'm catching up on my backups, just in case!
The new mouse is working great, whew. I got one with a retractable cord, which is pretty cool.
