Two Mice

[M444]

Im curious, is there any way to use two mice at once?

Depends on whether you have an ambitious, success driven cat...

haha I guess thats a no...

I can have two mice in my vb program by making one of the mice arrows myself and having the USB mouse control a image of the cursor, but thats all the farther i could get.

Yep, you can. You can configure your built-in pointing device to accept a serial mouse.

That way you can put both your hands to work.

But consider this. I had a friend who was reluctant to use both hands to type. He said each hand typed at half the speed of a single hand anyway, so why bother?

haha thats a good POINT pardon the pun.

Im planning a program that will allow 2 users to do such things as search the web at the same time on a larege projection screen.

There's a little box that allows two PS/2 mice to be used:

I don't know, but you might be able to use two USB mice in a hub to do the same thing.
