I think you should get the Kensington Optical Pro mouse. I bought it 2 months ago...it's a great mouse. optical is much better than ball.

I love my unimouse. I used the puck for one day, while I waited for my unimouse to be fedexed. its fantastic. Its great for gaming, doing ANYTHING. And I dont know what the deal about optical is. It sucks for games, and my mouse I've had to clean ONCE since I got it, and we know how much I use this puppy.

Yeah, i still have it. And yes, I do want to get rid of it. However, I'm contemplating making an Mpg of ways to kill a puck mouse. Maybe put it in the microwave, run it over with a car, light it on fire, put it in a vise, shoot it with a gun, or blow it up with some gun powder. Any other suggestions are welcome.

Cash you could.......

Play hockey with it or hit it with a baseball bat, preferably metal.

No, I havent killed it yet. But why would you want it? I mean, you'd be purchasing discomfort and annoyance (no easily feelable UP to it).

Email me if you want it I guess.
