A mouse without any wire attaching it to the computer! Thats what i was given on my work experience, truly breath taking technology, but lets put this man made miracle to the test. I the noble Garlic bread am going to find out whether its worth buying one of these or not.
Obliviously it works on this desk but let try try following...
Held hovering above desk and moved
Run across my arm
Run across my leg
Run across my face.
Taken to opposite desk and moved
Taken to opposite end of office and moved
Taken into room over hall and moved
Taken into canteen and moved.
1. FAILURE - after being lifted a measly inch off the desk the mouse fails to work
2. SUCCESS - faking an itch I cunningly scratch my arm, glance around room, good no ones looked up from their work. The mouse working!
3. SUCCESS - again faking another itch, gosh its stuffy in this office I mumble (the perfect cover story if anyone asks what I'm doing!) brilliant! despite the sensor being above the desk the mouse is still fully functional.
4. SUCCESS - This time I run the mouse across my face in a fashion similar to shaving *gasp* somebody's looking, fortunately there more embarrassed than I am so they fake as if they didn't see and continue working.
5. SUCCESS - this was certainly a funny experience, I wait until the office is uninhabited then proceed to the opposite desk, I watch my monitor carefully as I run the mouse frantically around his desk clicking more than a granny with arthritis, nothing, my monitor remains motionless, suddenly a chime!? from the computer on this desk! This mouse has picked up the wrong PC and even worse its performed an 'ILLEGAL OPERATION' time to bail back to my desk and play innocent for a while!
6. FAILURE - I'll just fetch the swivel chair from the corner I claim, taking the mouse with me. I run the mouse frantically around on the chair but nothing : (
7. SUCCESS - "What do you mean you drive a jaguar!?" I ask flabbergasted (despite hearing this story yesterday) can you see it from the window in that office? you can? I'm going to go look if you don't mind, and off I trot into the opposite office (with the mouse in my pocket of course) I reach the window, place the mouse on the windowsill and move it... "HEY MY MOUSE IS MOVING" cries an innocent worker from behind his console. Time to make my exit!
8. FAILURE - by far the stupidest, least likely to work test of all, but worth a try anyway, lunch break rolls around and take my leave, with the mouse of course. I buy my food (SANDWICHES IN TRIANGLE PACKETS, for those concerned), I take a seat and wait for a good opportunity. After a while I get an idea. I place the half eaten sandwich on top of the mouse and roll in around the desk... a few odd glances, one person points at me and someone else giggles, I quickly return to my desk, nothing, no change.
In conclusion nothing is perfect but this mouse in truly incredible, I'm awaiting more test results (like in a tree (but Michael Jackson hasn't E-mailed me back yet)) *realises that joke was inspired by ignorance*
Thanks for reading.
