and second, i'm at my friends house, and the fricken scroll thingy in the middle is slow. its annoying. Title: Mice? Post by: evilknight on February 18, 2004, 12:31:06 AM if u mean computer mice, then the plural is the same as the singular.
if u mean the mammal, then mouse is singular and mice is plural Title: Mice? Post by: SS on February 18, 2004, 12:38:00 AM I prefer mouses over mice, for the computer pointing device, but I'm not sure if there is an actual standard.
