Lately I'm very frustrated because my cursor will not move where I want it
to. It "lags" and sometimes "drifts." I wiped the bottom with a damp cloth
and thought that helped, but before very long the behavior began again. I
pulled out the USB plug and reinserted it. To no avail.
Is it likely that I need to buy a new mouse? (It's only a little over a year
old.) Perhaps even return to the "old reliable" roller ball type?
