Best Mouse

[impulse]

My mouse just died so now im using some crappy old mouse that i found, so now i need opinions on everyones favorite mouse.

A lot people like the Microsoft Optical mice. I have a cordless mouse by Logitech and love it. If you can, try the mouse before you buy it, or at least make sure that it is easy to return because I find that the "perfect" mouse really depends on the individual person and his/her preferences.

For gaming, the Logitech Wingman Gaming Mouse rocks. For general Windows/graphical art, etc., MS optical mice rock. Don't get optical mice for gaming, though, they have issues with fast movements.

I have tried the Razor mouse, Intellimouse Explorer, and the Intellimouse Optical.
I prefer the Intellimouse Optical.

the logitech mice are by far the best. I have the first mouse + and the USB wheelmouse. both are superb. my logitech optical should be here by tuesday but it is the same shape so should be just as kick ass

I keep going back to Logitech. In fact, after a recent flirtation with an Intellimouse Optical Explorer (the high-end one) I'm using (and far prefer) Logitech's Cordless Mouseman Wheel.

Logitech Cordless Mouseman Wheel is definitely the BEST!!!!!

Logitech optical mouse...It's great! Not as big and ugly as the MS one, and half the price!

I play alot of UT and quake3. I picked up an MS optical 'cause alot of sites said it was the shiznit, and because it looked cool.

Well, IMO it sucks for those abovementioned games. I just reinstalled my logitech firstmouse+ and am much happier with the response in games.

For general stuff, browsing, etc... the MS optical was nice. Just not games.

I really like my Intellimouse Explorer. My friends really seem to dig the "brake light" on it.

I use my optical mouse for gaming and don't seem to suffer the same problems other talk about. I used a Microsoft Intellimouse for the longest time and it was great too.

Just make sure it is a wheel mouse. I get on a computer without one nowadays and am lost.

IMHO MS IntelliMouse Explorer, but you should try wich fits your hand best yourself.

I say the Logitech optical. I love logitech components (on my desk is a mouse, keyboard, gamepad, and force-feedback joystick all made by logitech). I currently have the first mouse+, but I'm grabbing that optical ASAP. The feel is much better than the MS mice (my roommate has one of those and I can't stand it).

If you're gaming, go with either an MS optical mouse or a Boomslang. They both have great accuracy, but some people don't like the Boomslang's feel. You'd want to try one out at a store or something before you bought it.
There's a cure for optical mice's slow reflexes as some play, turn up the sensitivity in games! Then you don't have to move so fast, and you can give your arm a break.

GET THE RAZER. everyone says it is hard to get adjusted too....but its not. its not as big as they say it is and its really acurate. when i got it, i played quake3 online (for the second time) and i got in first. ON MY SECOND TRY. It was amazing. this was like 20 minutes after i installed my mouse. i didnt need ne adjustment at all
