    Hi, I have a question: What brand and type of optical mouse do you use? I bought one two weeks ago, Genius NetScroll Optical PS2, and I would never buy it again :-( When I used it, the cursor moved to random place on the screen quite often. It is waste of money. I changed it back to old ball-point mouse, but I can't get used to not having a wheel there. I always believed that Genius is a good brand. I'm thinking about a new one, maybe from Microsoft - Does any of you have its mouses - I prefer those with cable, but without a ball. Thanks for your response.

    I (actually, everyone at the office) use a Microsoft Basic optical mouse and it works flawlessly on every single machine. At home, I use a Microsoft Basic optical mouse (again) and (again) it works flawlessly. My wife uses a mini logitech optical mouse and often it goes crazy: the weird thing is that what seems to go crazy is the wheel, not the mouse pointer, but it's a hassle. Yes, even I am blogging now!

          I use a Microsoft Trackball Explorer[^]. Actually, I have two (one at work and one at home). It's quite accurate and I'd buy another one if one of mine went south. Charlie if(!curlies){ return; }

            Genius mouse ? What do you expect ? I have a Microsoft optical mouse and cordless natural keyboard combo and it totally rocks my world, I'd absolutely recommend them to anyone. Christian I have drunk the cool-aid and found it wan and bitter. - Chris Maunder

                I've got a Logitech MX 700[^] cordless optical mouse. It feels great in your hand and works fantastic! :)

                  Do not use a normal mouse anymore.. Been using the Graphire tablet mouse for about three years. While you have to use the tablet, the mouse is wireless and light weight. One mouse wore out and when I got the replacement, they actually had put a weight in it to make it feel more like others. Took that out pronto :) Rocky <>< www.HintsAndTips.com www.MyQuickPoll.com - 2004 Election poll is #33 www.GotTheAnswerToSpam.com "We plan for the future, we learn from the past, we live life in the present!"
