Remember when these were £20 a pop?

Does anyone actually use PS2 ball mice anymore? Anyway, not bad at £2.50 a go, if you need them that is

I bought one of those for use at home. Must have been 1999 perhaps?

Ahh I remember when Acorn mice were £70, I used to work at a computer dealer and repaired them for £30 an hour!

Ah, but it's not an Intellimouse is it

[Fatmas]

No, and I would rather spend more and get a mouse that doesn't fall to pieces as soon as I touch it. However if you're buying cheap for family members or as a backup, can't go wrong really!

On a related note, I came across an article from 2004 that said this about USB flash drives:

"They are everywhere, you can get sizes up to a massive 256mb for as little as £34"

I read that as I was copying files to my 8Gb Kingston drive that cost £7.99.

My first flash drive was 32Mb and cost £30-£40 (and is still working!). My friend told me it was a waste of money - I'd never fill it...

I have a 3 button Logitech pilot mouse with a 25 serial connector somewhere.

I still have my horribly boxy, horribly sun-washed Amiga mouse at home....

I'd probably buy one out of nostalgia - iconic shape and design - even if the use of one for a couple of years in the late nineties did worsen my carpal tunnel syndrome in my right hand.

Well dont keep us in suspense, did you ever manage to fill it?

My first flash stick was 64MB for £35, still got it somewhere

I remember having an early USB drive in 2003 and recall one teacher remarking about how they'd never catch on. It was about that time I stopped using my Zip drive. I actually found a Zip disk in the attic the other day and I am a little curious as to what it contains.
