     @arstechnica the lengths that OEMs will go to in order to not just make devices easy to disassemble and *clean*.

     @arstechnica Mine smells like the disinfecting wipes I use to clean it which, I imagine I'd still need to do. Make a self-cleaning mouse and you might have something.

     @arstechnica I hope I won't have to put up with perfumed mice in my office. I already live in a city with high air pollution, I really don't need more chemicals in the air.

     But, if one of my coworkers gets this thing, I'll crush some garlic, leave it in a jar for a few days to enhance the flavor and then smear their mouse with it.
