Mercury politics reporter Scott Moore’s mouse just died. On election day. DEAD MOUSE.

Instead of just going out to buy a new one, he’s going to see if he can make do with just the keyboard. We’ll let you know how this goes. Recent outbursts (over the last three minutes) have included:

“I could do this with a PC just fine, if it came down to it.”; “Counter-intuitive bullshit!” and “Agghhhhhh!”

Now he’s going over to Google, and finding the “Mac keyboard command menu.” Ridiculous.

Ooo. Amy’s just advised him that pressing CTRL+F6 “moves focus to the floating window.” And by hitting “CTRL” and “Tab” together, Moore has just discovered how to “move between tabs.”

“I never need to use a mouse again,” he concludes. If only Blogtown had a “courage” tab!
