On the laptop I'm sure it would be harder, besides which you are probably
unfamiliar with it. I often have the problem of picking up a piece trying to put
it back, "at 2/0 it happens" and then the piece won't go back, I know that the
mouse makes a big difference. Any ideas on how to move quicker, are certain mice
better than others, what are optimum mose settings, I have also heard "rumour"
that the faster the computer the quicker the move registers, anyone else heard
that or is there any truth to it?.
