I carry my portable Printer, multiport, cables, printer adapter, floppy drive, disks, an extra PCMCIA modem, this ThinkPad (of course), and I could fit it in just one backpack, although I normall have 2. But back to the cordless mouse topic: technically speaking, could one use the IR port for a mouse that connects that way? After all, it is just a regualry interfaced serial port, right? (after what I've heard)? Paul
