    Don't you hate breaking in a new mouse?

    Maybe it's the kitty in me, but I seem to go through mice on a regular basis. When I find one I like I usually buy more than one of them. Well, the one I've been using they don't make anymore and the wheel went out on the last one I had.

    Now I'm stuck with a new one..completely different feel to it and it sucks.

            I know EXACTLY how you feel. The worse thing I know is when I forget my mouse at home when I leave for long projects. Then I end up using some OEM mouse where one of the slides are missing, and it wobbles across the table.....

            I have 3 of these http://www.razerzone.com/p-66-razer-...ing-mouse.aspx
            It's the best mouse I ever had. I usually wear them out fast, but this one I have now is almost a year old.

            There are 4 tings that are important to me
            1 - the slides on the bottom, they need to be big and last long
            2 - how hard the buttons are to push
            3 - need to be with a cord
            4 - programmable buttons

                i have a new wireless microsoft mouse. took a few hours to get used to since it's a bit smaller than my old mouse and the scroll wheel was grinding. it's worn down a bit and fits like a glove now.

                  I don't even use the scroll wheel on my mouse, you scroll down 5 "clicks" and then it will jump back up one or two.

                  I wonder if anyone's come up with a non mechanical scroll wheel? Like an area you move your finger around in?

                    I've been using a Logitech Laser Mouse cordless LX8 for a while now... close enough to my MX510 that died that it didn't really require much getting used to.

                        It must be all of the batting around, tossing them in the air, and chewing on them ;)

                            For me it is keyboards...they have to have a certain "snap" to them. When I find one that I like, I buy multiples. I just ran out of duplicates of my favorite keyboard and I can't find anyone that sells them anymore, so I had to buy a different one, and I hate it

                              What the hell are you people doing to your mice? I haven't had a mouse fail on my since they used those little gay balls inside them, and even then it was usually due to dust getting all tangled up in there.

                              The only time in the past like 8 years I have had to replace an optical mouse was if the computer i wanted to use it on did not have a ps2 port and i needed usb, or the color of it did not match something else on my desk.

                              Are you guys not using mousepads and are just using these on bare surfaces or what?

                                                              I have one of those. It's way more sensitive than my other mouses.
