I chucked it when I got my first optical mouse. Now I have a tablet with a mouse so I certainly don't need it.
*sniff* I still miss the 'lil fella though :(

I know someone who works in the local PC World....
...and he really is a fuckwit. He actually FAILED a job interview for McDonalds. Most probs afraid that he'd eat all the food, the fat dippy cunt.

why do people pay for this?
it's always the same conversation
spotty pleb 'would you be interested in our support package?'
'no thanks, I'd be able to buy a new tv/pc/washing machine etc in a couple of years for the price'
'But what if anything goes wrong?'
'then I'd be able to buy a new one with the money I'm not paying you'
'But it does offer peace of mind'
'oh for fucks sake, are you listening to anything I'm saying?'
'yes sir, but you'll find it's good value'
'oh fucking hell, I give up, I'm only looking before I order of the net anyway'

Hmm
They tried to sell me loads of antivirus stuff and a firewall despite the fact I pointed out we have no phone line. This didn't seem to bother them.

I managed to pick up a cheap Minolta Dynax camera and lenses
in Dixons a couple of years ago for £189, they wanted £129 for 3 year 'whatever happens cover'
so I asked if that included hitting retared shop assistants.

apparently it does
It was quite tempting for about 5 seconds, then I realised I'd be commiting ABH infront of witnesses

I bought a digital camera from Currys
It was £69, and the extended warranty was £80. I asked the dude if he was joking and he just stared back at me blankly and said "It's very good value".
although I love it when you ask them about something and they read the back of the box to you.

I think they must have their minds wiped and
a standard Dixons Group script burnt into their memories. It probably slips into every day life as well.
'You dumb shit, this breads mouldy!'
'Yes, but it's very good value'
