Then there was the lady that called IT to report a dead mouse on her computer. When we was told to take the mouse ball out, and wash it she went through the roof.


It turns out that there was a dead mouse (furry kind) on top of her computer...

Well, yes, most of my mice have. However, I still have one that has a ball (the laser version draws too much power for the KVM).

The KVM I have is powered from the mouse and keyboard ports of the computers (old style mouse and keyboard ports BTW) and the combination of the power draw of the KVM and the laser mouse was just a bit too much. I don't use those computers that much, so it does not matter that much.
