A standard mouse with a magnetic bottom plate would allow it to be placed on the side of metal server racks for convenient access.

Would this be a mouse with an extremely strong magnet that could go next to the hard drive? Ah, my knowledge of hard drives is out of date, they already have magnets (had).

Just ditch the windows servers and go to linux - no mouse needed!

Does anyone else miss the accupoint, or is it only me?

[8th], that would work too. A super-strong magnet on the bottom of the trackball and you could mount it on the side of the server rack and never need to move it...

Make your mouse a pirate mouse using a screw hook ? You could hang the mouse on the server rack yardarms.

yarrggg!
