Oh, it probably can be - (pwhysall) - (7) - March 3, 2022, 04:16:43 AM EST

Hang on… - (pwhysall) - (2) - March 4, 2022, 09:52:14 AM EST

And if it is ... - (drook) - March 4, 2022, 11:13:03 AM EST

Of course. Aren't they all? - (CRConrad) - March 4, 2022, 02:15:39 PM EST

Fortunately, ArcaOS . . . - (Andrew Grygus) - March 4, 2022, 11:35:23 AM EST

I dodged the bullet - (crazy) - March 5, 2022, 12:20:32 AM EST

Laser printers are ridiculous. - (Another Scott) - (8) - Feb. 27, 2022, 12:05:43 PM EST

Brother. - (InThane) - (4) - Feb. 27, 2022, 10:35:43 PM EST

That used to be the LaserJet description - (drook) - (3) - Feb. 27, 2022, 11:26:49 PM EST

I think the LaserJet 5 was the start of the decline. - (static) - (2) - Feb. 28, 2022, 03:32:44 AM EST

Decline started to set in . . . - (Andrew Grygus) - Feb. 28, 2022, 12:20:43 PM EST

+1 I hate the Blue Box. - (Another Scott) - (7) - Dec. 13, 2021, 12:37:05 PM EST

My issue isn't with sites blocking it - (drook) - (6) - Dec. 14, 2021, 11:24:12 AM EST

On the other hand it works fine with my Chromecast that I already had - (crazy) - (5) - Dec. 14, 2021, 05:42:30 PM EST

Beware Logitech - even their higher end mice - (scoenye) - (19) - Dec. 9, 2021, 07:43:48 PM EST

Heh, we've got a different range for "cheap" - (drook) - (18) - Dec. 10, 2021, 12:16:26 PM EST

I have no idea what that meant - (crazy) - (16) - Dec. 10, 2021, 11:20:51 AM EST

$6 is kind of expensive for a mouse to me -NT - (boxley) - (14) - Dec. 10, 2021, 11:28:14 AM EST

I would hate it - (drook) - (2) - Dec. 10, 2021, 07:48:03 PM EST

It makes sense for their target market - (crazy) - Dec. 11, 2021, 02:29:51 AM EST

Fine finger movements still work - (malraux) - Dec. 11, 2021, 04:38:23 PM EST

Why lift up your RIGHT forearm; doesn't it work for you if you do it with the left one? - (CRConrad) - (2) - Dec. 13, 2021, 03:17:14 AM EST

Symmetrical yes, ambidextrous no - (crazy) - Dec. 13, 2021, 03:42:51 AM EST

It's a right-handed vertical mouse. (I don't think they have a lefty version.) ;-) -NT - (Another Scott) - Dec. 13, 2021, 12:27:28 PM EST

I can't get on with those... - (pwhysall) - (1) - Dec. 11, 2021, 04:28:49 AM EST

monitor was in the corner - (lincoln) - (2) - Oct. 31, 2021, 06:05:10 PM EDT

A portrait-capable monitor might be another option. - (Another Scott) - (1) - Oct. 31, 2021, 09:51:00 PM EDT

Re: A portrait-capable monitor might be another option. - (lincoln) - Nov. 1, 2021, 05:14:58 PM EDT

that used to be a builtin function didnt it? -NT - (boxley) - (3) - March 6, 2021, 04:38:18 PM EST

I think so. Win10 20H2 hides it very well if it's still there... :-/ -NT - (Another Scott) - March 6, 2021, 07:13:29 PM EST

Looks like PowerToys might be able to do it. - (Another Scott) - (1) - March 13, 2021, 05:49:10 PM EST
