Apple Magic mouse is the best :D

Not for a lot of CAD, big hands and two machines :p
i had one for a while..liked the idea but the ergonomics are horrible for me.

Just thought a thread with loads of pics of peoples will give me inspiration =]

do you rly want to know?
i like my MX518 from logitech. It is big and comfy but if you want something very nice, i would get a mX performance mouse. i tried one at at best buy the other day and it was very sculpted for hand support and such. But alas it was very expensive. 80-100 if i rememberer correctly and my mx518 was a paltry 38 bucks when i got it. :)

I use a microsoft Mouse, specifically the Explorer Mini mouse with bluetrack laser.

It works very well with both Mac and Bootcamp.

Logitech performance MX, great mouse. No need to worry about batteries as it is rechargeable with usb, and you can use it while it is charging.

Have the same mouse, and I LOVE it. Best mouse for everyday use IMO. I like the Magic Mouse, but its way too small for my hand. With the Logitech, you can do Expose, Dashboard, forward, back, etc. all from with your fingertips. Love it!

I use a smaller Logitech bluetooth mouse for my other iMac. Well, I did, before the iMac crapped out on me.

Not as good as the Revolution MX, which this one replaced.

The Revolution has/had some nice features this one doesn't. A couple extra buttons (all of which I use, ergo, I now find it highly inconvenient to use a mouse w anything less than the 12 or 13 buttons I'm used to :D).

No longer manufactured, and the left click is dying, but ah well. My mouse is this sweet baby:

...does the Performance MX have a free-spinning scroll wheel? That's one of the best features of this one

^ And what's your reasoning for that?

I'm not trying to say the Performance MX is a bad mouse... it's just that he has it and I feel like mine is better. More buttons, the wheels feel better and so does the actual action of clicking.

I have two of these. One for my iMac and the other for my MBP. I like them a lot better than the Mighty Mouse for sure.

I have the Revolution one too, but its currently in the closet. I always had issues with the top wheel when I tried to switch it from smooth to click scrolling. I think both are great, and while I like the wheel on the side of the Revo, Im very happy with the Perfomance.

This is my baby. More for gaming (especially WoW) but she's been good to me for everything else. :)
