I just got a Microsoft Optical mouse and was wondering if it is okay to leave it on all the time. I usually run Seti during the day when I'm at work.

The optical sensor is always on and I was wondering if it powers down after a long period of inactivity. Will it "burn" out? It just seems to me that it would.

I have a Microst Optical IntelliMouse Explorer (long enough name?) and I've left my comp on for about a year, besides the daily reboots (darn win98!), but it seems fine.
