Yes, you can use the "on board" mouse and also an external USB or Bluetooth mouse as well. Thank you, The Technology Tree

You should be able to use your own mouse, just plug it into the USB port. However, I can not answer the rest because I had to return my Dell. It was not working when it arrived. Wi-Fi should be enabled if you want to go on line.

Yes...any computer with a USB port can do that. If the mouse is Bluetooth, this laptop has that functionality as well.

The answer is yes. I do not recommend this computer because of the touch pad. I have had 7 or 8 laptops over the years and this one I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy. If you are not going to use it with a mouse, you should pass on it.

yes you can connect an external mouse. You can even use a bluetooth enabled external mouse; this eliminates the need for the usb plug.

By simply plugging in the adapter into a USB port that comes with the mouse. This adapter is housed on the underside of the mouse. Pull it out and plug it into the laptop or CPU.

You can but the mouse pad on the computer is very easy to use. It has multiple touch functions that work just like the touchscreen.

Yes you can use a mouse, after you get use to the touch screen you will find yourself using both. You will love windows 8, I went on youtube and watched videos on how to use it so when I received the laptop I had a general idea of how to use it. It has been a blast learning everything, don't believe things you read about not being able to use a mouse, I have no idea what they are talking about, sometime I thing they read something and just repeat it with out knowing what they are talking about. You will find this a great addition to your tablet. Windows 8 has Flash built in so you can watch all videos. All in all this laptop in a great one for the price. Feel free to ask any other questions. Yes you can use a mouse, after you get use to the touch screen you will find yourself using both.

No! This coronet to the computer by USB, but your mouse would have to either be wireless or connect to the back of the computer.

Yes. You can use a mouse with any laptop including this one. It doesn't come with one, so you'll have to buy it separately.

You could use a regular mouse, but I would recommend using a wireless usb keyboard because the Bluetooth doesn't work all that well.FYI, When you hit the button to hide the bottom bar it causes the screen to go slightly off center and there doesn't seem to be a way to fix it.

Yes you can, Shannon N. I actually, use the mouse from my HP wireless keyboardwith the icraig smart tv HDMI adapter.

Yes, you can. My son doesn't do well with the touch screen so he uses a mouse.

Yes you can, actually i'm using a generic compatible wireless usb mouse with Acer Aspire V5-471P and windows 8, works fine

Yes you can use a mouse with the ACER . I purchased a micro mouse from Logitech that works great and is small enough to put in your pocket. This does use the one USB port however, so if you are wanting to connect any other device you would have to use the docking station.
