Mouse Port
the key used to select things has been pressed down. I am afraid that if I continue using this button then it will become permanatly demaged and useless. I want to use an addition "mouse" to select and do other things.
which mouse is suitable and where is the port in computer to attach plug it in?
thanks

This laptop does not have "traditional" PS2 style keyboard and mouse ports. Instead you may plug in any USB mouse and it should work just fine. Or you can use a standard PS2 mouse with a USB adapter.
Examples of USB mice can be found (and purchased) here: http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=100008652%20600009595&IsNodeId=1&name=USB
