Default 2 wireless mice on 2 computers - conflict?

I currently have two computers within 3 feet of each other, maybe 2
feet. One uses a bluetooth mouse the other is a Logitech M305 with
one of those nano USB receivers.

I would like to replace the bluetooth with a duplicate M305 or maybe a
V450. Either way, it would be two wireless nano receivers and my
concern is the signal conflict. Will we be playing on each others PC?

Pairing ?

I thought pairing is how the computers keep them straight.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bluetooth

First, operate one computer at a time, and "pair" the device you want
to associate with that computer. Then turn on both computers, and
watch the fun.

I use 3 and sometimes 4 Logitec mice in a small room without
a problem as the mouse and its receiver are paired.

You don't have to worry about the mice being paired to both PC
simultaneously, but getting the proper pairing might be a problem.
