I treat my hardware with respect. Usually. he he. The space bar went on the keyboard and the left-click button on the mouse.
I now have the MS optical job - only £20 from the local shop and the best mouse ever, ever, ever!!!

My logitech cordless mouse is the best investment I ever made. It has survived my daughter using it, my son throwing it, and people in the office abusing it. You got a dud, I guess, but my experience causes me to recommend them without reservation.

Have a vanilla Logitech mouse (cable, wheel, mechanical). The mouse itself is ok, but the USB cable is just to short, and it took me three days to make it cooperate with my ZIP drive on my Win9x box.
The earth is not dying. It is being killed.

The only Logitech device I use is their trackballs, which work great (especially on planes with laptops).

the worst mouse i ever had was a microsoft wheel mouse.. after one year, the wheel stuck and i found no way how to get this d***** wheel going..
so i threw this mouse away.. right now i have got another crappy mouse (the ibm mouse with the scroll point.. i don't have got a slight idea, how somebody came to this bad idea with the scroll point)..
think somewhen i have to fight for a decent mouse..
yaya.. mice and men..

If you would have kept the mouse MS would send you a brand new one, sometimes you don't even need to send them the bad one

It should have some "hovercraft" system, so it would hover over the table. I am really annoyed by cleaning it from junk that comes on the bottom side!

I thought that I'd be able to stop cleaning my mouse, once I got an optical mouse.
But it seems I clean my mouse even more often now -- as the 'pads' on the bottom of the mouse collect every bit of dirt off of my desk.
It is less work to clean it, but I still clean it every other day.

It´s strange... I got an optical mouse and all the fuzz is sticking on table and not on the mouse. I´ve to use a scrapter from time to time to remove the fuzz from my table.

My optical mouse gathers a thick layer of crud on the corner pads which causes it to skitter when I move it. I need to scrape the pads at least once a week.
Boy. How ya gonna keep 'em down on the farm once they seen Karl Hungus.

I second that. Dunno whether you have witnessed that here, but meanwhile more and more developers here have an optical mouse

Is it possible that there is some hidden meaning behind this Poll ?

Very little chances. Maybe some mouse manufacturer asked Chris to do this poll so they can focus on the future products.

Like what?
I was cleaning out my mouse for the nth time and was wondering how often everyone else does the same.
Nothing sinister Colin.

Oh Ok,
Its just every week I try to guess what the Poll will be. For a while I saw a trend with a marketing motive of some form. (nothing sinister with that either) Anyhow this Poll makes me remember how many weeks there are in a year, and how having a new Poll every week must present a challenge to you.

A) hourly
B) daily
C) weekly
D) I am an outtie
