Yes I can. As I know how to do with computer, I can. Mostly i use keyboard only instead of mouse. If we were good in keyboard shortcuts, we can handle all those very easily. What about you. Will you survive or not.

Hi kenchiprincess, yes I think that I'll survive without any mouse.. I think that I can handle every key combination in Windows and Linux and know every command that I want.. The think is that the mouse is very important if you are a Computer Graphics designer or something like that.. In my case, I'm a programmer and I don't need the mouse so much, as long as I have a keyboard I'm going without any problems..

I can really survive even without computer for a week as long as I am enjoying in a vacation.. hahahaha... But when I am staying home, I can't stay away from my computer in a day. Maybe if there is no electricity I will be forced to stay away from my computer. Well, when I am not home. I can forget my computer but when I am here? I can't stand it, without using my mouse in a day.

I think a computer won't even start without a mouse. And i'm talking about one running XP or Vista. There are certain commands that are simply inaccessible without a mouse. Also, on the internet it would be very annoying to press tab in order to circle among all the links.

I have survived without having a mouse attached before, but it's hard to remember all those shortcuts and commands to get it to do what you want it to. I still use a lot of keyboarding shortcuts, sometimes they're just quicker than hunting for drop-down menus. Going without a mouse reminds me of back in the days of dos (pre-windows) when all we had to go by was commands only. Yeah, I could survive, but I'm so spoiled by my optic mouse I wouldn't be totally pleased either lol.

I think I can live longer without mouse and computer. I am a net worm indeed, I like internet very much and I never spend a day without surfing web by computer or mobile phone. But I hate internet, it has spent me too much precious time that I get back.
