Those f****** mousecords!!!! (47 comments)

( Journal: ESR)

Posted by TER @ 15:59 CST, 11 January 2007 - iMsg

What do you guys use, what tricks (appart from a mouseweight or bungy) do you use to keep your mousecords at place. I just got my intelli 1.1a and i'm realy happy with it, only the mousecord seems super stif, so what do you guys advise to get my mousecord at place. I use tape now but i seem to not tape it correct or smth because it still doesn't feel good. any tips?

You could either duct tape it to something or you could wrap part of the mousecord around the base of your monitor and leave the rest as slack and you should be good.

i either tape it to the table or put a mug/book/printer on it

ah yea if there's one thing i really hate about the 1.1 is how stiff the mouse cord is. i had to really physically bend it into place. the good thing about it is that it lasts much longer than the thin diamondback cords which tend to have a lot of problems after a few months.

TER - Reply to #8

yeah man i think i will just have to get used to the stiffnes, but right now it effects my aim and movement horribly.

<< Comment #11 @ 17:10 CST, 11 January 2007 >>

ashr - Reply to #10

yup. that happens to me everytime i get a new 1.1. the only thing i can tell you to do is give it a few weeks and wait for it to 'loosen' up. i tried a lot of things including taping, using a bungee etc but it still felt when they were brand new.

You can replace the wire with the one of Explorer 4.o which seems more flexible to me (I replaced the wire of my classic IME 3.o with a 4.o one)

I put a small weight (a disc of a bar-bell) on my table with the cable underlying. Works fine for me.

Seems like i'm the only one who puts his monitor on top of his cord.
Since i'm lazy it was the obvious thing to do :)

Get as much slack as you think you might need and just tape if off onto your desk.
