MousePads - test-drb@ccmp.vtda.org

...
  I'm not a collector, but I have run into a type
that
 you might not have seen... oriental rug mousepads.
 There's the Mouse Rug, but that's a fake -- just an
 oriental pattern printed on a plain old mousepad.
 But there are also woven rug type pads, which are
 far nicer.

  I got mine from oldcarpet.com. 

Yup - got me one too. Still using it at this moment. I picked it up at a 
Las Vegas Comdex convention some 7-8 years ago.

The main reason I purchased it was the fact that it claimed to 
automatically clean your mouse. In fact, printed on the backside of it is:

"Automatically Cleans Your Mouse"

I don't remember ever having to clean my mouse since. (And yes - I still 
use a mechanical mouse with said mouse ball. Haven't gone optical yet.)
