OK. After reading the other posts I'm getting the feeling that this has got
to be a hoax. How can anyone put in the time and effort so that a certain
individual can switch the button functions of a mouse. This has either got
to be an executive or their administrative assistant. Otherwise, I myself
would just tell the person to deal with it. But if you want to go that extra
yard to satisfy the user go out and spend $30 and get them a new Microsoft
Intelligent mouse where you can switch the button capabilities within
Control Panel/Mouse. Seems like a lot of time and effort over something non
productive. By the way for our viewers amusement can you take some digital
photos of this person using the mouse turned upside down?
