Dalvey stainless steel mouse, the perfect polished pointer for corner office poseurs
Here's one swanky mouse. This fancy stainless steel number by Grands of Dalvey takes you back to the old days of Apple iMac puckitude, but this one's so fine it's suitable for engraving. It's more than just a pretty face, too, resolving 800dpi with its optical sensor, and packing an eerie blue backlight underneath its translucent wheel.
This $89 bauble might be the perfect pointer for the clueless suit who "doesn't feel a particular need to email," but wants to appear to be a computing hepcat. That shiny surface must be a fingerprint magnet. And the circular shape? Let's just say there is a good reason why Apple's ergonomics-ignoring puck-shaped mouse now resides atop the ash heap of tech history.

"doesn't feel a particular need to email,"
Wow, dissing a tortured war hero for geek points. Do you and the Big Zero (Obama, though it refers to his active IQ) run in the same crowd? You know McCain can't use a keyboard since he valiantly endured torture so you could have the freedom to diss him? If there were any justice in this world you'd have both arms shattered repeatedly
You pathetic scumbag.

Actually, that "ergonomics-ignoring" mouse only had one major flaw, a single mouse button. Other then that, it promoted good hand posture, unless you acted like a buffoon and tried to palm it. Holding your hand in the piano player position is far more ergonomically sound than the wrist on the table position most mice are designed to encourage.
