"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.

    But I kind of liked red. It wasn't my favorite color, but it was one of the better ones. :-(

    I wish it hadn't died.

    maybe once they find out that there is a 2.4 series kernel, it'll be a lot easier for them. i won't tell if you don't.

    I see this as a troll, but it still needs to be addressed.

    How the heck did this get modded to 5? It's offtopic, and trollish. While I don't disagree that this story is not exactly the most important thing in the world, these sorts of things have been listed on /. for quite a while now. I'm a geek, and I was interested in the article.

    If you're not interested then ignore it, don't gripe to everybody else that you don't care.
