    And lastly, there's a button for mapping buttons to other buttons. Simply hold down CTRL+ALT+SHIFT and F12 while simultaneously holding the Button Mapping button and the combination of keystrokes and buttons to be mapped. It's quick and easy! #openofficemouse

    I think i will program all the buttons on the left to do the left click function, and all the buttons on the right hand side to do the right click function. And then bask in the ridicule of having such a feature-rich mouse yet wasting it. I love technology. #openofficemouse

    Autocad. Plain and simple. Having the 18 most common commands loaded in, such as l, co, plot, m, mi, pasteclip, copybase, and so on. I would love it. That is, if I could remember which button was which and then consistently hit it correctly. #openofficemouse

    @Duckspwn: Loves Approving Reds: I worked with AutoCad for 3 years so far and I am willing to bet that it would be useable. I mean, I use the keyboard without looking at it, so why shouldn't I be able to train myself to use the mouse? I am able to just reach down and type almost all of the commands with one hand when using cad. #openofficemouse
