UBB.Developers Forums General Discussion Chit Chat What kind of mouse?

It would seem like a trivial thing to worry about, but when you use it all day long, the mouse you have becomes very important. I say this because I recently upgraded to a much more comfortable model -- the Microsoft IntelliMouse Explorer. What a surprise, my hand no longer hurts at the end of the day!

What kind of mouse do you use? Try to include a picture if possible. Here's mine: http://microsoft.com/hardware/mouse/ie_info.asp

I use two different mice, both Logitech mice.

This is the mouse I mostly use for gaming:

This mouse I use for comfort. I don't think you can get it without the keyboard now though.

I also use the Microsoft IntelliMouse Explorer. It's very nice, and comfortable.

I use this crappy Compaq mouse I got with the comp. It's got that scroller which is the most important thing to me.

I use four different mice.

A simple MS mouse w/ Intellieye, an MS Explorer, a Logitech mouseman, and an IBM one.'

All four are scrolly, three are LED-powered. The Logitech and IBM mice have the curved shape to fit the right hand, while the Explorer is the Explorer and the simple mouse is the post-dove-bar model.

I use A4-Tech 4D+ wheel mouse cheap&excellent wheel mouse

I got a relatively simple logitech mouse, with wheel and all...
I love the feel of it, and have bought one for my parents' computer and my dad's laptop as a present to them (and to myself, when I need to use their computer)

Microsoft IntelliMouse Explorer on this comp and a Aopen mouse on anthor, not sure about hte model on that one

IntelliMouse here. When I have to use mice without the little wheel in the middle, I feel so naked.

I have a wide assortment depending on the machine...

Laptop uses M$ Explorer Trackball

Gamer uses Boomslang and Logitech iFeel

And "most" others use the Logitech Optical Wheel Mouse.

When I'm in the cage doing servers at Exodus I have a Logitech Mouseman Marble trackball on my laptop...

IntelliMouse Optical, see pictures thread.

Logitech optical

Logitech Cordless Wheelmouse

Its similar to this, but its all metallic silver

You mean like

my mouse ?

I use an Intellimouse Explorer at work and at home I use the new Intellimouse Explorer 3.

On *my* computer, I have a Logitech optical mouse - I think it's one of the first ones they made. Just a standard shaped optical mouse with a scrollie wheel. The bottom is translucent smoke colored, and the top is a metallic-ish indigo color.

On my aunt's computer - the one I'm using right now for lack of my own - she has a Microsoft cordless mouse. And i don't like it! The shape is odd, it's far too heavy, and it doesn't even work half the time.

On my computer at work, it's just a regular old Microsoft wheel mouse.

And when I become a vampire at night, I find that a trusty standard-issue lab rat works good to cure my bloodlust. But I guess that's not really a mouse, is it?

Either-handed (no curve) Logitech optical wheel mouse on the Mac...first one they made, same as Jamin's, I think, with the indigo.

Right-handed non-optical wheel mouse on the PC.

Everyone is right who's said that once you've used wheel constantly, you won't go back. I once used a computer that didn't have a wheel. It just felt so...wrong!

A dead one

The [Tab] key is my only true friend... *sigh*

Logitech Optical... pretty confortable.

Logitech Cordless Optical...liked it so much, I got one for work too!

Silver microwatsit Intelli explorer rodent here too, use the one mouse on both pc's see post computer thread, I have a usb hub switcher, so all my usb devices are available to either pc at the press of a button, handy for checking how UD's doing

i use IntelliMouse Optical at work and Logitech Mouseman (3 buttons + wheel, with cord) at home

i put "close window" function in the right side button of the optical and i keep closing windows by mistake

I use a Microsoft USB Intellimouse... it's nice and smooooooooth.
