    Who's using trackball here instead a mouse?

    which brand/model? How long did it take to get used to it?

    thanks

          I was using this for a week but reverted to my old one.
          The scroll wheel proved to be much useful specially when moving the page up/down.

              webcrawler,i just got this one. It has no scroll wheel as you said which is annoying,but you can program a button to do it. I have a microsoft one too,but the ball on the left part and i cant get used to it at all. Do you have pic of the one you use now?

                      An old one but perfectly serves its purpose.

                          No i don't.
                          I used touchpad for some time and i got used to it. But mouse is the most comfortable for me.

                              I considered getting one of these but I think I might want to rip my thumb off after a day:

                                          Tried it for a while but no way could I get used to doing design or photochops with it. Great for Centipede though!

                                                              I use the Microsoft one and it rocks. It took me a day or 2 to get use to it and I would never go back to a "normal" mouse. It is so much easier on your wrist and forearm when you're spending 8 hours+ a day on the puter

It's retarded to have a thing you drag all over your desk like a toy car (but call it a "mouse" because see, this cord is like a tail!). I can't believe turning the fucking thing upside down and using your fingers to move the ball wasn't suggested much earlier in the game.

It's retarded to have a thing you drag all over your desk like a toy car (but call it a "mouse" because see, this cord is like a tail!). I can't believe turning the fucking thing upside down and using your fingers to move the ball wasn't suggested much earlier in the game.

                                                                                                                                          I was getting early signs of CPT about 5 years ago and switched to one of these.



                                                                                                                                          Think about it - you have been using a pen since about 5 years old - so using one of these puts no stress on your hand / wrist that you are not used to.

                                                                                                                                          Also - no "double click" as you can programm the button on the side to be a double click when just pressed once.

                                                                                                                                          This is THE best thing you can do to improve your computing comfort. Allow 2-3 days to get used to it and thank me later.

                                                                                                                                          Only get Wacom - they are the best.

                                                                                                                                          Also - for photoshop nothing compares.
