Yes, you can leave your current mouse plugged in..  The only issue would be a driver conflict but doubt that this will happen.

Yes, any usb port is fine.

There are left handed mice.. but I would, if you plan to go back to your right hand, buy a universal one.  Microsoft makes a universal mouse that is decent quality and cheap.

  I had this issue once ( the hand thingy ), I did the same thing, I had no problems. I switched the left and right buttons on the mouse as well, it just flowed a bit easier that way.

k...damnit all to hell...help me guys...

please...

i bought this track ball mouse that u can use with either hand and i go to install it and i get this warning... "the software you are installing for this hardware: USB Marble Mouse has not passed Windows Logo testing to verify it's compatibility with windows XP...continuing your installation of this software may impair or destabilize the correct operation of your system either immediately or in the future. Microsoft strongly recommends that you stop this installation now and contact the hardware vendor for software that has passed windows logo testing.

now this is a logitech and it has the lindows xp logo on it and says that it's compatible...

what's up with this...can i install it??

i get those all of the time with my logitech mouse, i've never installed drivers for it after that and it still works perfectly. but i dont want to tell you it will 100% work, then have it screw over your system. but mine works without drivers.
