[Eug-lug] keyboard equivalent?

[Mr O]

FWIW, I have two optical mice plugged into my desktop now. Both
can be used at the same time to play "tug'o'war" with the
cursor.  Unlike the crippled OS from Redmond I don't have to
wait for "found new hardware" to complete its routine before I
can use my rodent. Really only have two mice plugged in because
I'm evaluating a replacement mouse and didn't feel like crawling
behind my PC to unplug the other one. 

Also, on most laptops you can disable the touchpad with a
Function + key. For example "FN + F5". Look for the picture of a
finger and/or touchpad on the top of your keyboard. Some also
have a hardware button to disable the touchpad.
