Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
My bluetooth mouse doesn't seem to work about 1/2 the time. Sometimes I have to click on things 2-3 times to get it to actually work. It's like something is stuck on and when I go to click on things...the object will start moving around/etc.

I bought a new mouse some time back for my iMAC 27". The mouse has always seemed to do funky things.
