I kept checking with epinions for how they had really worked for folks. And I found the best deal on the one I was thinking of at newegg, a computer supply company. But it was still too far over my budget. So now I am thinking about a laptop mouse so she can turn off the touch pad - they never work well. It's not as good a gift for her but perhaps it will still show my gratitude. She is my student and has had so many hours this month the I can get the brakes done on the truck and buy groceries for 3 weeks!
Kate, that sounds like a wonderful gift. I HATE laptop touchpads. They make things so difficult!! I'm sure she'll love it. I'm glad you got so many hours in this month. Way to go!
