Mice...
 

Can anyone suggest a good mouse (not laser) that has three buttons (not inc. the scroll button) and a scroll..?

um.

might i ask why anyone in thier right minds would not want an optical mouse?

i didnt even know they made the old crappy ball ones anymore.

I heard that they were really hard to use with games..? Like lifting the mouse off the table would result in the cursor moving accross the screen.

no.

opticals are best for games. MUCH MUCH MUCH more precise
smoother. eaiser to use. never need cleaning

there was some problems with opticals in games when they were first being made at the start.

they've long since fixed such issues.

the one i use now. NEVER had a problem with in any game ever. its never twitched, its never gone off track. its been perfect.

Logitech Duel Optical. (2 finger buttons, scool bar/button. and a thumb button)

the one im getting for chirstmas .... Logitech MX500 (2 fingerbuttons, scrollbar/button, button above scroll bar, 2 buttons below scroll bar, and 2 thumb buttons :D )

i prefer logitech over anything else. never had a problem with anything they've made. hate the MS mouses.

and i hate Cordless mice, no point in em, always right by the computer.......... Batteries run down. when batteries get low, mouse will start going funny untill batteries get repalced. just not worth getting a cordless

Thanks for the heads up. Just out of curiosity though... If you've played Counter Strike before, how well does the mouse work with the game?

i've played it. mouse worked perfectly (hate the game tho. never played much of it)

but i play FPS online for PC all the time.

Quake 3, now UT2003 battlefield 1942.
the mouse is best for FPS online

i mean, once you use an optical mouse, you'll seriously wonder how you ever did without, you can aim quicker and more accuratly, if your sniping, and you want to move it just a hair, you can do it.

i remember when i used a ball mouse and i was sniping one on game, i tried to move a hair. and the damn ball would get stuck, and have to move it a bit more, then it would go too far.
*mumbles*

you'd never want to have a ball mouse again, i dred going to someones house and they have a ball mouse. i yell at em. hehe.

Thanks man, I'm definately going to get one now. You know any websites that have them (I live in the UK)?

well see, im a biased one to ask.

www.logitech.com

woudl be my answer.

i use nothing but logitech for mice. hell. my keyboard is logitech. my ps2 steering wheel is logitech. i never seen another company better then them for mice.

im pretty sure they're in UK too tho.

i got a Ms mouse...still no probs with it, it's optical, 2 buttons and a scroll (which is also a third button) and i've had it for about 2 years now...now probs...i play CS everyday, works like a charm...

I have an optical mouse also Shadow Link, it's great. DO NOT buy a mouse with balls (pun intended). ;)

yes, you want a female mouse. :D

Check out my bad boy :D

im sorry, but Mac mice are another reason im not buying a mac right now.

they may look pretty, they're just not as pratical as other mice. They still have only 1 button? or have they 2 now?

scrool bar?


bunch of other buttons?


Edit.

oh yea. i can use my logitech mice on macs.


All is well then. :D
