What mouse do you use?

DE_Firger over 14 years ago

I'm about to purchase a new mouse and I'm looking for recommendations. What do you use? Pros/Cons? What are your button assignments? Thanks!

In my opinion such things should be implemented by the OS, not by hardware drivers.

I use a Logitech mx1000 laser

Like it but you need to also load "uberoptions" to make it easier to program

FWIW, I do believe that is happening and will continue to happen -- that exists today to various extents in graphics, output, and now input peripherals. However, there will likely always be "tweaking" done at the hardware (and therefore driver) level to extend what does not exist at the "basic" level and to provide the "market differentiation" that the individual vendors need to survive. Now, this does not mean that the OS vendor needs to have exclusive control -- all that needs to be said is OpenGL and WINTAB regarding that :) -- but it would be pretty safe to say that advancements in technology (and "support" for that at the OS level) will continue to happen.
