I had problems with my GI mouse some time back (late last year?) and found
that Arnie knows a place that reconditions them.  I sent the dead one off
to Arnie and it came back sometime later in rejuvinated condition.  I don't
remember where it was that he sent it - I recall he said where but I don't
remember the name of the place...
