What Pointing Device Are You Using Now?
« on: Tue, 04 March 2014, 17:27:37 »
There's a similar thread for keyboards, so why not about pointing devices as well?

I'll start:
  • CH Products DT225 (USB) and Kensington SlimBlade trackballs at one setup (slimblade for scrolling and fast movements, DT225 for accuracy and wonderful Japanese omrons)
  • bare Logitech G9x at the other one

IBM Track Point L40, in trackball mode of course...

I also use a Kensington Expert Mouse from time to time, and a simple Microsoft Compact Optical mouse for gaming.

Kensington Slimblade on the left(currently moved out of range to make room for my Orbweaver) and a Logitech G602 on a Mionix Ensis 320 pad on my right.

Will probably keep using the G602 until the battery runs out, I should have two more rechargeable ones somewhere, but I can't find them, so until they show up or I can be bothered buying new ones the G602 will stay dead.

Still pondering what to swap to.

On the current setup used to visit this place, the re-done MX500 rules my world but on other machines in the house, down the hallway in bedrooms, office, storeroom and garage it's Mionix Naos 7000, SteelSeries Rival, Roccat Kone Optical, Roccat XTD, Logitech mx1100, MX Revolution, G500S, G400S, G9x (wifey loves it), IE 3.0 and a Microsoft Sidewinder mouse (no kidding).

All of these mice get used but the MX500 gets the most love at this particular moment in time.  IT would seem I'm a Logitech fanatic yet I don't feel like barracking for them in any way on this forum or on any other.

Since I use a Model M with that true-age yellow tint, for a mouse I bought an ancient Microsoft mouse on eBay, and then replaced the insides with those from a brand-new Microsoft Laser Mouse.

Looks old, works new.  Matches the Model M plastic perfectly!  Was way easier to do than I expected.

YES, that's the way to do it.  Re-use the shell for something better and keep on using it.  A shame no company makes shells to accept mouse internals like Razer's, Logitech's and Microsoft mice.  It means you can choose what type of internals to use yourself.

I'm sure some Chinese company would love to start a business selling universal shells to accept almost any internal sensor and switch from other manufacturers.

Potato pics attached.   The potato has poor white balance; both the keyboard plastic and the mouse are much more yellow than they appear in the pictures.

No Dremel was needed.  Apparently the top plastic mold didn't change over a 15-year period.  I just disassembled both, cleaned (but did NOT Retrobrite) the old top shell, and re-assembled.  I could not re-use the old sides or red front tip, so those are new.

I like it.

[edit]
It is also possible I gained a USB cable in the process.  I am not certain of that.

Okay so you've used the original WMO.  I thought you opened up a really old version, of a Microsoft Mouse that used a Mechanical Ball arrangement and removed the internal guts, then replaced it with the WMO internals.  My fault for misinterpreting your description.

I've moved my pc into the living room for numerous reasons, so I've had to change over to some wireless devices. Mousing on my belly as I lounge back is sketchy at best, I have found the M570 and T650 ideal for my current setup. Though I find both devices tacky and cheap (yet they were both surprisingly expensive), and the T650's acceleration is disturbingly high.

Sorry, missed this post.

I looked at using a really old IBM or MS mouse external case, but I really couldn't do without the scroll wheel, so this was the oldest I could find that would work for me.

I found that the CM Storm Spawn had a similar feel in my hand to the G9X. I've been stocking up on both since I love both of them. But currently I'm using the Spawn on both my work and home computers.

I'd really like to try a trackball though.

Razer Deathadder 2013 version. I've had 3 DA's... and like 10 Microsoft Intelli 3.0 mice prior to my DA's. Any recommandations for a new mouse? I'm happy with my current one though, so I don't really care - but for all I know there might be a different mouse out there that would fit me better. It's for gaming/internet browsing purposes.

It's hard to recommend something if you just want something that fits you better, since we can't really know what you prefer. You might want to try something radically different, like an Abyssus, a Xornet, or something flat like a Func MS-3.

Are there any mice that's similar to the Deathadder, but with better internals? I need two buttons on the left side, nothing more. That CM Storm Xornet mouse looks interesting. I noticed my current Deathadder is starting to die out, so it's time for an upgrade soon.

Edit: Reading your mega mice write-up. :P Xornet inc.

Ozone Radon Opto. Finishing my review of it (Brazilian Portuguese though). Already disassembled it and saw how much of a bloody mess it is inside as well. It scores 5/10 and God, I hated it.

I'm currently using Kensington Expert Trackball for working and CST LtracX 3200 dpi for gaming. I'm waiting for a new heavier cue ball - about 6.75 ounces . The original ball is about 6.02 and pool balls are about 5.85 . I'm hoping the heavier ball will provide more longer spins

For my two main PCs:

G700, G13, Wacom Intuos3 (4"x 5"), on the primary PC
G700, Wacom Intuos3 (6"x 8") on the secondary PC

I use Input Director freeware, which lets me use everything but the PowerMate across either PC depending upon the Master/Slave condition.  I know two Wacom tablets is excessive, but when my cats "disappeared" the Grip Pen and I saw how expensive they were to replace (about $50, as is the mouse!), I decided to buy the 4" x 5" so I'd have a spare of everything else.  The sole grip pen is kept carefully out of harm's (cat's) way, as I suspect they knocked the original off the desk and into the trash without my noticing. /sigh

But seriously; I use the g9x, and I think I'll be extremely sad when I have to hunt for a new mouse because this is THE mouse for me.

I found that the CM Storm Spawn had a similar feel in my hand to the G9X. I've been stocking up on both since I love both of them. But currently I'm using the Spawn on both my work and home computers.

I'd really like to try a trackball though.

Yeah I was looking into stocking a couple of those actually. Thanks for confirming my research even more =).

My new CM Storm Xornet. I am comfortable with it after 2 days of usage, but I still prefer the IME 3.0 style. Will pick up a CM Storm Alcor or something in the future. :)
