Mighty Mouse ain't so mighty after all

NOT wanting to sound
like a Mac evangelist, I really think the people who came out with
Mighty Mouse are either genius, or idiots.
Well, Apple has landed themselves in yet another lawsuit - with Man and Machine (another weird name, I know) filing lawsuits against both CBS (the cartoon Mighty Mouse) and Apple.
It seems like every company has rights to names. I'm sure CBS does have more rights since I've been watching the cartoon since I was young, but I swear this is the first time I've heard of such a company existing! Well, literally, a man and his machine :p
Anyways, back to the mouse. It's giving me huge headache over the scrolling problem, that I had to manually disintegrate it and clean the junk. Literally. While this isn't new, what the web did not suggest is that there are physics involved with the placement of the dumb magnetic screws that one wonders how in the world did such an item come out in the first place!
I think those folks really had a fun time experimenting with the left-right clicks and the stupid dirt attracting nipple, and really, every profession out there are marvels in their own rights.
Anyways, for those folks with a phobia, yet want to clean their mouse, my advice is - go ahead. It's not half as daunting as it is, and you'd be loving your bloody mouse as much as the first time you used it - if you don't hate it with constant cursing and swearing on how to fix the rollers back.

The damn rollers, which is the culprit behind the insensitive nipple
