Re: Optical Mouse / Ball Mouse

Depends on which computer I'm on. Two of the three desktops I have have optical mice and the other has a ball. I also have two optical USB mice for both my laptops since I prefer a mouse over a touch pad or eraser. I do use the touch pad or eraser sometimes on my laptops when I'm on running on battery power for long to conserve energy.
So in reality it depends on which computer I'm on and if I'm on a laptop if I plan on running on battery power for long. If you want to know which is my favorite it is the optical since you don't have to worry about the ball getting all gummed up or the rollers/pick ups inside.
