- My ATARI dealer sold me a mouse for my STe 1040 which frequently starts
- to wander around the screen by itself - without me touching the mouse.
- The problem is of course that in some programs, if it pulls down a menu,
- the program will not respond to keyboard inputs.
-
- My dealer tells me this is common to all non-atari mice, and is due to
- "very strong signals from the mouse". In my opinion this has rather to do
- with "very much noise from the mouse". Should I accept what he says, or
- is this behavior of my mouse unacceptable? Any authorized opinions are
- very much appreciated. Thanks in advance!
