Are you thankful for the invention of the "optical mouse"?
 

I am.
I just had a flash back of the days of taking my mouse apart every month to get all the cat hair and other shit out of the roller ball.

Plus the precision was never as good as these opticals.

This thread is dedicated to the optical mouse and whomever is responsible for it. :thumbsup

Thanks

BV

Oh yes and the wireless keyboard too :)

No, but I am for the optical trackball (VERY thankful - Cat hair was the killer of mine too). Using a mouse gives me carpal tunnel.

Too much time on your hands baldy :1orglaugh

whats up homey

True Dat...

Sup bitch :1orglaugh

Nah. I am, however, eternally pissed due to the invention of the trackpad.

I couldn't live without my laser mouse.

fuck wires

Trackball mice are awesome.one of the best inventions yet

it is a beautiful thing... my mom had a mouse with a ball up until a month ago....

WTF!

I can remember slamming my mouse down over and over to try to get the ball back to tracking correctly. I hated those fuckers.

I've got this now, and the fast scroll feature nearly made me creamy the first time I used it.

It's a very helpful invention.. thanks to the inventor whoever he is.

Oh yes...I hated that roller ball!

yup... no more mouse 'poo'

Great invention, old ball mouse shit was gross, all that shit you need to clean :)

oh god yes

Oh yeah, I forgot about cleaning the lint and shit out of those old style mice. That sucked.

All hail the Optical Mouse! I love the optical mouse. I'd have sex with it.

Traded in my old dual optic mouse for a laser.

Wayyyy better...more precision.

Laser all the way. Balls and optical crap are for sizzies.

Edit:
Forgot to add that if you don't have a wireless mouse you're a sizzy as well :)

No....... i think they fixed something that was not broke.

I hate infra red, optical, laser and all that other shit. Why not just have a regular trackball? I could give a fuck if it gets jammed once in a while, at least i wont get cancer on my hand.

I love that mouse. I got that because the touchpad on my laptop stopped scrolling and I cant be happier. I have http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/pr...ONTENTID=10776 for the desktop and highly recommend it.
I dont know how I put up with that ball mouse for so long!

laser is where its at

I got my first optical this morning. I like it, had to slow it down a bit.

that's the one I've got. Best mouse I've ever used

I miss the Logitech MX 300, that mouse was so simple yet so perfect.

i wish logitech would come up with normal drivers for macs/osx :( Microsoft did, why cant logitech do it.

optical mice are awesome

I am greatful for the Microsoft optical trackball... but only because last weekend I struck gold at a garage sale and got $1500-$2000 worth (ebay sale prices) for $30. I couldn't believe it. Brand new in the boxs.

I have that one too. Fucking love it.
