all you need a mouse for is pointing and clicking, and sometimes scrolling.

who needs an expensive laser super glass surface mouse? not me

the extra buttons are useful.

but, as the the laser technology, what if you had a sminy table and didn't want to spoil it with a mouse pad?

Then you'd be spoiling it without a mousepad instead - a mouse would scratch it and dull it.

Wouldn't a mouse scratch the nice shiny table?

i prefer ball mice
when i use my optical sometime when i lift the mouse off the pad it moves back (if u get what i mean)

plus i like the flick action the good ol' ball mice give :D

ball mice for me always get dirty and never quite work the same way again after u clean em. esp since i also happened to be pulling completely apart to see what was in side and all...but it does happen naturally

LOL, i thought current optical mice were laser anyway.

Besides, the accuracy of a mice (in this case a laser mouse that can see x20 better) - is probably hindered by the little squared-up pixels on your screen.
