FWIW, I have used multiple mice at the same time in Windows (XP at least - don't know about others). They were both USB (my cordless died, so I hooked up a corded while it was charging then once the cordless had some juice they both worked), but I believe I also had used a USB with a PS/2 at the same time as well just out of curiosity to see if it would work.
Just thought I would share.

they found him guilty BECAUSE the video game wasnt to blame, so what are they suing for?
Two reasons. First, money. Second, so they don't have to admit they are lousy parents - it's the game's fault, not theirs.
Actually, the people suing were not the parents from what I saw, but rather the victims of the officers killed. However, I imagine your first reason is on point. Thanks for giving the parents of the killer a potential lawsuit idea though! Although I'm sure a thousand slimy lawyers haven't already thought of that and approached them of course.
By turns, do you mean turns in the road? If so, I don't know about you, but my car came with (apparently optional by your post) brakes, which I use to slow down to a more appropriate speed when encountering such irregularities.
55 MPH is too slow for most roads; correct me if I'm wrong (guaranteed on this site! ), but wasn't that speed chosen in the US at least for fuel economy, not safety, back during the gas crisis. Yet some areas still hold on to that even though it is clearly on the low side.
Yes, but the parent has a good point/idea. If someone were so inclined, they could really make a lot of potential mayhem by writing a trojan that does exactly this. Maybe also have the trojan email the authorities as well? I wonder what they would do with this law once it was found that thousands of little old ladies (because we all KNOW those are the ppl with the cable modems and computers always on, but that aside...) were posting the same prerelease movie online.
Just food for thought.
