Happens here too on mine. If I push the stick all the way to
bottom & then back up, I usually get my pointer back.

With Win '95? I'd say enormous. I bought an extra 8 MB when I got
my 701 and never regretted it. Win '95 uses a *lot* memory. Prices are so
cheap now, I'd recommend you go strait to a full 24 MB. Even then, on my
machine at least, it seems barely enough (I load up lots of cutesy stuff
with Win '95 like Norton tools).

Women often ask, "What do men really want, deep in their souls?"
The best answer--based on in-depth analysis of the complex and subtle
interplay of thought, instinct, and emotion that constitutes the male
psyche--is that deep in their souls, men want to watch stuff go 'bang'.
