Mouse Balls

This is a forward sent to my grandad from one of his friends which he had to send to me, hope you all get a laugh
Mouse Balls:

I don't know how they wrote this with a straight face. This was a real memo
sent out by a computer company (IBM) to its employees in all seriousness.
It went to all field engineers about a computer peripheral problem. The
author of this memo was quite genuine. The engineers rolled on the floor!
Especially note the last couple of sentences.

Re: Replacement of Mouse Balls.

If a mouse fails to operate or should it perform erratically, it may need a
ball replacement. Mouse balls are now available as FRU (Field Replacement Units).

Because of the delicate nature of this procedure, replacement of mouse balls
should only be attempted by properly trained personnel.

Before proceeding, determine the type of mouse balls by examining the
underside of the mouse.

Domestic balls will be larger and harder than foreign balls. Ball removal procedures
differ depending upon the manufacturer of the mouse. Foreign balls can be
replaced using the pop off method. Domestic balls are replaced by using the twist off method.

Mouse balls are not usually static sensitive. However, excessive handling
can result in sudden discharge. Upon completion of ball replacement, the
mouse may be used immediately. It is recommended that each person have a
pair of spare balls for maintaining optimum customer satisfaction.

Any customer missing his balls should contact the local personnel in charge of
removing and replacing these necessary items. Please keep in mind that a
customer without properly working balls is an unhappy customer
