I've had a Micro$oft IntelliMouse Optical usb for about two weeks and I love it. Its a scroll wheel mouse with 5 programmable buttons. 4 buttons + the wheel can clicked too. Its fully compatable with OSX and 9. I bought it at BestBuy for $39.99USD. At that time they were running two rebates totaling $25USD, so it was a real steal! Hope that helps. Check out the setup picture thread in the Lounge, quite a few people have them connected to their Macs.

Get a Wacom graphire tablet. It costs more but it's worth it. It's more accurate than optical mice and it includes a pen for those moments when you want to draw in photoshop. but the only downside i have noticed is that the wheel whill only work in netscape. I dont know if tis is normal or not or if is just a ****ed up setting. I highly reccomend one tho. I love mine, it's light and easy to use.

P.D.
