You should get a logitech fiber-optic mouse, it is the best yet!!!
Do not get a wireless mouse though because the are not as durable |

As I am at GalileoAce's house for another month, I am familiarising myself with his computer (so different from mine).
The mouse is wireless, the scroll wheel sooo smooth. I am thinking of nicking GA's mouse. |

I have a few Logitech trackballs I use on various machines, and I love 'em. The only one with which I don't regularly use a trackball is the ThinkPad.

| Just use a cheap, crappy one. No use spending money on them, 'cos I find the more expensive ones do their job less efficiently than the cheaper models. |

| Trackball...because I like to do graphics and play with photos...more control. I have an older trackman marble that's about 6 years old and it fits my hand perfectly... (I even have a spare stashed away, in case this one decides to die on me). |

I have:
Touchpad - Which has had the grain worn away in the middle, making it feel annoying.
Trackball - Which works well as a normal mouse
Tablet-Pen - This is a special kind of tablet that has no batteries or wires. It's very useful. |

I prefer to use optical mouses or wireless, the ball in the old mouses gets covered in sh** and just ends up being a pain to use  |
