Indeed they are, and so cheap these days, it's not worth bothering about the older type.

They can vary in accuracy though, I bought a £2.99 no-brand one for an old PC of mine and it's not a patch on my Logitech one, it jumps all over the place when you try & use it slowly & accurately. You gets what you pay for...

unscrew the bottom, there will be about 2 or 3 rollers in there.
use your finger nail to scrape off the crud, then re-assemble, should be like new. also, get an optical one, there only a few quid,and are much better. |
