    Do you know where your balls are? (and get your mind out of the gutter)

    I don't know how they wrote this with a straight face.
    This apparently was a real memo sent at a computer
    company to its employees in all seriousness...This
    memo is from an unnamed computer company. It went to
    all field engineers about a computer peripheral
    problem. The author of this memo was quite serious.
    The engineers rolled on the floor! (Especially note
    the last sentence)

    Mouse balls are now available as FRU (Field
    Replacement Unit). Therefore if a mouse fails to
    operate or should it perform erratically, it may need
    a ball replacement. Because of the delicate nature of
    this procedure, replacement of mouse balls should only
    be attempted by properly trained personnel.

    Before proceeding, determine the type of mouse balls
    by examining the underside of the mouse. Domestic
    balls will be larger and harder than foreign balls.
    Ball removal procedures differ depending upon the
    manufacturer of the mouse.

    Foreign balls can be replaced using the pop-off
    method. Domestic balls are replaced by using the
    twist-off method. Mouse balls are not usually
    static-sensitive. However, excessive handling can
    result in sudden discharge.

    Upon completion of ball replacement, the mouse may be
    used immediately. It is recommended that each replacer
    have a pair of spare balls for maintaining optimum
    customer satisfaction.

    Any customer missing his balls should contact the
    local personnel in charge of removing and replacing
    these necessary items.

    It's funny, yes, but it's an urban legend...
