Can you work without MOUSE???

Yes, it happened to me...i hated it. My mouse broke once and i had no choice but to use the touch pad of my laptop which i really didn't like. My daughter is used to using the touch pad but not me...i like my mouse. It's kind of like my pet. lol With desktop it's a different story cause there's no touch pad so it's more pain in the butt to learn about the key functions and all that. Good post, thanks.

I know a few things about shortcuts of keyboard and it can be made by our own. I can work without mouse, but kindly it makes me so slow to setting my fonts. I will shutdown my computer, and save the documents also fix the mouse or keyboard or change with new one.

I have experience this before when my keyboard got sick=) it was such a headache cuz i don't know how to use the keyboard keys at all i don't know anything.So i had to go to town and got a new one.Keep lotting...keep earning right back at ya=)

Well I use a laptop most of the time so I am used to using the touch pad. I am just as comfortable with is as I am with a mouse, but I think a mouse is more practical. If the mouse broke, my dad has a computer shop next to the kitchen as he runs his own business so I am sure I could find a spare mouse to use! Or find a spare computer!

on a desktop nah, ill just put off using a computer then. but on the laptop i guess its manageable.

I've always wondered what would happen if it did with my desktop. Fortunately it never has since I have a few old mice around to get me by just long enough to get a new one. On the laptop, however, I don't use a mouse at all; although there are times where the mouse pad doesn't work correctly which makes me want to learn the shortkey commands to work more efficiently.

I have had this happen and I did not find it that difficult. I was already knowlegeable of the key functions on my key board and find a lot of times even though my mouse is right there that I do use my key functions anyways because my hands are already on my keyboard.

I use a laptop so most of the time for Internet surfing I'm using my track pad. When I'm using Photoshop I switch over to a wacomm pen tablet, and when I'm using 3d software like Maya I use a regular mouse. My favorite of all three is the pen tablet!

Yes i have experience this situation many time. Some time my mouse struck and i use my keyboard to operate the system but this is very hard

He radhanair1001, if my mouse goes down for some time, it will not make me crazy or lead me to tear my hairs. I can work with my keyboard but it will make me work slower than normal. However, think of a situation where your mouse works but not the keyboard. Can you continue working? Have you ever experienced this?
