    Default Isn't it annoying

    when you lead the mouse downwards to click on one of the tabs on your taskbar, and then suddenly there is no more space left on your desk, and you're only one centimeter away from clicking the tab, or link, or whatever, and you have to lift up your mouse and drop it further up on your desk so you can scroll all the way down to it.

    I don't think it is.

    No, because it doesn't happen. My desk is very roomy, I have a cordless mouse, and my taskbar is on the right side of my screen.

    Having the taskbar on the right is even more annoying. and so is a roomy desk and cordless mouse.

    He wasn't saying put the taskbar on the right. The slider in the option he was talking about affects how uh "touchy" the mouse is. So you move it a little, and the pointer moves a lot. If you move that bar all the way to the end, you barely have to move your mouse at all to go anywhere on the screen. Its almost too sensitive though. I keep my sensitivity high, but not maxed out XD

    No, it's not! It makes life so much easier!

    It's so easy to just move your cursor to click on something when their sorted vertically. Well, that's what I think.

    i don't have that problem. i have a cheesy mouse for my laptop and i get burns on my finger due to touchpad sometimes (when i get sick and tired of mouse). with bro's pc, the mousepad is the comfy corner of a bed.

    Not really. I can't say it happens all too often.
