"Red is Dead" Optical Mice LED Change

Posted by Hemos on from the i-want-mauve dept.

A reader sent us the HOWTO for changing that red LED on your fancy-pants new optical mouse to blue - or, I suppose any other color. I think I'm fine with what I've got - although, the glass tops on tables does make using optical mice a pain there.

    todays "geeks" are nothing but hot-rodders. "Modding" their computers to look shiny or overclock them for the sake of being "best" on the block. Pure mechanics. Racing for pink slips. Who cares.

    People who are genuinly interested in computing do something else with their time. Sorry.
