this mouse has more buttons than Jesus

Left button, right button, yes, and the clickable wheel. Then a further-left and a further-right button, it's like a Pittsburgh intersection. These two are bound in IE to "back" and "forward". I think the idea is you can drape your mitt over the mouse and stare glassily at the screen just about until the oceans rise to your power supply.

It also shines a bright red LED out its butt. I assume that's purely cosmetic, just to prove it's optical, and when I snap and cover it with black electrical tape that'll do no harm.

You force me to ask: exactly how many buttons does Jesus have?
Or perhaps I misparse your subject, and I should ask how much Jesus the mouse has.

Not as many as the Beatles, that's all I know.
