Recommend a decent mouse?

[Dry Rot]

Can anyone recommend a decent simple computer mouse that doesn't cost a fortune? It's for a Mac but most seem to work.

Prefer cordless as the desk is already cluttered with wires. I seem to get through them in no time. I've one that sets the pointer fluttering on the screen although it's sitting on the desk untouched. Another (Apple) that only works if I press it at a certain point. Then another that regularly stops working and will only start again if I take the batteries out and swop them around....

I use a logitech mx master mouse, around 48 on amazon. Very comfortable for long term use.

Logitech wireless does me OK. Seem to last longer than the pc itself

That sounds like good advice. Logitec have a good name. My problem is probably my inherent meanness! £20 for a mouse sounds like a fortune to me! I thought this £8 one expensive and the Apple mouse came with the s/h Mac!

Only good mouse is a dead mouse..

but regards computers... Logitech wireless keyboard and mouse for less than £18 never had any problems with them

I have a Logitech wireless keyboard but don't like their mice. Instead I have an £8 Tecknet one from Amazon. Early days but seems good so far.

Plenty new ones on ebay for a tenner or less.

I use a trackball instead of a mouse. I find it's much better for fine work in Photoshop and premiere pro. Using a standard mouse feels odd to me now.

Not directly picking on you, But it this attitude get on my wick. the amount of times i get ask round to fix someone computer, and listen to how they HATE to use the computer to find a cheap keyboard which is like typing on soggy cardboard. a sh!t mouse that you wag all over the place in the hope it goes to the right spot, and a crap monitor that after 5 mins has given you a splitting headache

Logitec, Razer and Microsoft make good hardware these days.

There is a Logitec heading my way from Ebay but my conscience wouldn't allow me to spend more than a tenner. I only need the bog standard model.

The Logitec is doing OK so far. Makes me realise how crazy I was to put up with the other two. I don't throw much away, but they are going!

Mine works fine and now I know how bad the others were!

I can't believe how long 1x AAA battery lasts in a wireless mouse.
Logitech get my vote.

The “farm” cat caught one a couple of days ago......

Wireless trackball any day off the week. You don’t have to move it so more space for shyte on the desk!

I had a cordless one a time back . I couldn't get on with it at all . Every time I came to use it , I had to unplug the sender for a short time and plug back in again before it would work . Probably a cheapo , but I don't have a problem with a wired optical one .
