|
|
thing well; a small, self-contained hack. The image is of a hamster happily
|
|
spinning its exercise wheel. 2. A tailless mouse; that is, one with an
|
|
infrared link to a receiver on the machine, as opposed to the conventional
|
|
cable. 3. [UK] Any item of hardware made by Amstrad, a company famous for
|
|
its cheap plastic PC-almost-compatibles.
