Mouse
Bwaha. I just repaired a 10 dollar optical mouse that I got for free when I bought something or other ages ago. Used a screw driver and a hot glue gun. The best part is the sense of accomplishment.

Waiting for my next paycheck to buy the power supply. Would've gotten it this paycheck but had to buy a limited edition camo psp .
Once I start putting parts into it I'll take pictures and have a photo progress of sorts.

Like those cordless mouses that run on batteries, mate threw it away spewing that they were crap only lasted 2 weeks before it broke down! Broke down? Did you try changing the batteries? What batteries? |

Even I know about batteries! Sounds like the old first rule of nonfunctioning equipment research: Is it plugged in?

That's the 2nd rule, right after: "Have you turned it off and on again?".
