I  didnt have a mouse for a week. Yey for tab.

I'd be all like "WWWWWHHHHHHAAATTT TTTTHHHHE FUUUUUUU-"

Yus, one day in Computer lab we had to use the keyboard.

I've seen someone play the computer with a Guitar Hero guitar.

You can. It just involves alot of the arrow keys, the enter key and the tab key.

Some idiot took the ball out of a mouse in the computer lab and I was able to get along with out it, I eventually just stole one out of another mouse though : \

you only need a mouse for gaming, or drawing.

although i would get a little sick of having to use the kb for everything all the time
i do use nearly every hotkey there is, all the frikin time. so i guess i am slightly a kb user

There is a feature called MouseKeys in accessability options.

You can control the mouse by using the Numpad.

789
4  6  - Moves cursor
123

5 - single click
0 - hold click
.  - release holding
+ - double click


/ - switch click to left click
* - switch click to both buttons
- - switch click to right click


Hold shift to slow down mouse
Hold ctrl to speed up mouse
(Requires option turned on)

And lastly, the shortcut:
left alt + left shift + num lock
You may have to hit num lock a few times till you hear a loud beep.

I can use the mouse to navigate the system and most programs easily, except for some strange programs (e.g. 'writing' or document programs) that change the TAB key to inserting a tabbed space rather than changing menus. Usually things are possible with alt keys but it's a little harder and occasionally the program doesn't work right. (In my school's Office 2007 I found it impossible to access one of the options I needed with the keyboard, even though I could find everything else easily)



I could do it, but if I didn't have a mouse I wouldn't use my computer.


I can, but when it comes to games it's kinda hard. But yes, easy to navigate a comp without a mouse.

lol, alot of the responses here seem as if your all saying its possible, i asked if you CAN.

anyhow, neato
