Re: Microsoft Sidewinder mouse and static
Hello & welcome to TSF,
well you have guessed right about static shock / it can kill you system compleatly or devices
now this mouse
if i am correct it is protected
the only part that is metal is the ball and it rest in plastic set to wich it is connected to rollers on the inside wich are also plastic & sheilded from the ball its self / but to take no chances you may want to get a plastic floor mat that they use in offices to prevent further shocks
they can be purchased at (office Max) $ unknown / or wear rubber gloves / or get a differnt mouse / wear some shoes / slippers
also what is your desk made of (metal) / these can be grounded
