Me, I still using a logitech oem SGD$6.00 roller ball mouse I got from SLS. Will be making a switch to optical come november when I can get access to SLS again. I just don't get the response and precision I require when CSing online anymore. Your opinion, microsoft or logitech optical mouse? I going for cheap oem ones. I'm not going to invest in bluetooth, wireless or whatever technology throws. Just looking for a logitech or microsoft opitcal 3 button mouse w/ scroll.

Translucent casing would be a plus, I like to see the red glow in a darkened room. Very Happy

im using the creative USB op mouse, very cheap $16 only. look very nice.

but i facing a problem.. the light in my mouse wont shut off when i close my PC. why har?

try other op mouse also like tat. only this time hor, the light really very bright. other old op only have the red senser ON.

----------

i think op mouse is the best. why leh?

ball mouse is heavy-because of the ball and need to clean inside from time to time.

cordless mouse -heavy due to the battery.

Logitech optical mouse for me

If you shut off your pc, you might realise the lights on your keyboard may not go off either. The mouse and keyboard are drawing current seperately. So you have to switch off the mains as well. Very Happy

Personally don't think there's a difference.

It's the brand. It does strange things to people.

I'm so tempted to take the microsoft ones at uni. But they've recently swapped it with HP oem ones. Haiz. Very Happy

I'm using a Microsoft optical.

2.5 years old.

left mouse button not sensitive already. Scroller spoilt.

Hope this doesn't prejudice your judgement when buying.

Still the price tag and the bling factor(read:fancy glow). My mind still pretty set on either logitech and meecrosoft, coz they proven themselves to me. Very Happy

Me... Sad

I'm still using a ball mouse that's wired to my keyboard, which is wired to my computer. Sad

keyboard with mouse port or USB? never see before leh.

bismarck SG

me too.
logitech PS2 mouse..
quite steady...
dropped a few times still can work..
simple 2 keys without scrolling wheel in middle..

MooKu SG

Dunno.

I think USB? It looks like it.

My mouse is connected to the keyboard, and the keyboard is connected to a USB port in front of the CPU.

I kinda like the ball mouse... It's heavier and feels better holding it.

But sometimes it doesn't move well. Confused

sillyme SG

when the mouse doesn't move smoothly, it's time to clean it Smile

i prefer logitech mouse

MooKu SG

Clean oraydee... Neutral

Harro uncle silly Mr. Green
