My dearest AdrianII,My dear indispensable Beirut, there is always another.
Indeed, that there is always another is the very essence of banality. But that there is not another right then at the moment and the ensuing paperweightedness of the computer until one is acquired is the very essence of indispensability.
When at o' dark thirty, in the midst of great computational activities your mouse fails to squeak, t'is a mighty piece of cheese you would offer to have another at hand.

Cheap Dell mouse, 2 buttons, a mouse wheel, optical. Not a bad mouse for being so cheap, it's not bad for FPS games either.
Re: What type of mouse do you use?
My dear essential Beirut,
right beside my computer sits a box containing several mouses of varying technical composition and outer appearance, one of which I daresay will do the job should the need arise to replace one's current mouse for reasons of aesthetics or malfunction. Allow me to elaborate. Besides several mouses of the pedestrian variety, said box contains such gems of modern computational design as an M&M mouse in the shape of a smiling piece of candy with tiny hands and feet; a mouse in the shape of a wave, named after a sports facility called The Wave which one frequented in a previous life; a mouse in the shape of a Smurf; as well as, inevitably, the ultimate 'fun' mouse in the shape of a fully erect male organ plus testes which has been donated by one of the good merchantmen of Amsterdam. It is amazing how many mouses gather on one's desk without the incentive of a single chunk of cheese lying about.

Microsoft optical mouse - great for gaming and such like.
GARCIN: I "dreamt," you say. It was no dream. When I chose the hardest path, I made my choice deliberately. A man is what he wills himself to be.
INEZ: Prove it. Prove it was no dream. It's what one does, and nothing else, that shows the stuff one's made of.
GARCIN: I died too soon. I wasn't allowed time to - to do my deeds.
INEZ: One always dies too soon - or too late. And yet one's whole life is complete at that moment, with a line drawn neatly under it, ready for the summing up. You are - your life, and nothing else.

For those who voted trackball, what type do you use?
What's even worse than having your mouse die is having the batteries in your keyboard die, when there are no batteries to be found! That's why I'm ordering a new wired media keyboard to replace my old wireless one.
I agree with Beirut! All hail AdrianII lord of the Mice!

Re: What type of mouse do you use?
Yes you are. And a blisteringly interesting contribution to the conversation at that.I am not.
I hereby declare Lord AdrianII as the board's Mouse Guru. All future mouse questions should be directed directly at him.
