Optical Mice

[Zukatah]

I've been using a Logitech Dual Optical mouse for a couple of years now and I'm very satisfied with it and I wouldn't change it for anything else on the market right now. Its two optical sensors make it one of the most precise mouse on the market and it's very comfortable, the thumb button is a must and so on...

The Razer mice are very nice, I have a Razer boomer speed, and a friend has one of the new optical ones.

I never even thought of that. I personally hate it when a hair gets under the laser and makes it go freaking crazy.

How often does that happen?

Never happened to me...

Me neither although I do know a couple of people who had mice that kept on going crazy every so often.

Sobieski's problem lies with the fact that his mouse pad is made entirely out of hair.

Well then he should get a new mouse mat!

When I was in college they had regular mice in the labs (opticals weren't as popular or cheap back then).

Anyway they had a problem with people stealing the mouse balls. So to solve this problem they started glueing the bottom on them. Of course in a very short amount of time they were functionally useless and since they were too cheap to buy new ones you had to deal with them for quite some time. You used to get so mad you felt like taking them and smashing them off of the IT guys foreheads while yelling "There! now it's broken! Will you replace it now!?!"

Why do people steal mouse balls? Its not as if they ever need replacing so why steal them?

They don't even bounce. People are just stupid.

why do people steal the sign off the front of a Mercedes?? cause they can. and they can guarantee that it will SEVERELY irritate the guy who owns it. or in the mouse sense, it will annoy the hell out of the next guy who tries to use it.

I suppose the only solution are non balled mice...
