I would suggest the Logitech MX 510 Gaming Mouse! I have a similiar mouse the MX 700, which is wireless. I have noticed some issues w/ it, like losing sync w/ the receiver mid match. I continue to use it though, if I didn't I wouldn't have any excuses for dying! :angry:

Right now I'm using the P.O.S. Dell Mouse I got with the computer. But I just ordered this and it should be here very shortly.

I still have a fairly old wireless optical mouse, the Logitech Cordless MouseMan Optical. I think that they dont even sell it anymore.

Just btw: It's not a laser mouse, it's optical. (normal light) :)

Logitech anything is always an excellent choice.

However, if you want a high-end microsoft mouse um... free, simply find a pic of the mouse you want on the internet and send in a replacement request to microsoft along with the pic.  I haven't done this myself so I am unsure of the details, however my friend did it and his new uber-nifty mouse works just fine for him :p

Seeing as I'm all for low budget solutions, I'd need a bit more info on that Torque. This is the best I could find on that :
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?...kb;en-us;326246

Ask your 'friend' what he did in precise steps, pretty please.

Alternatively, anyone that has recently bought a decent MS mouse could fax me their proof of purchase >)

Well Saltz, according to jon all he did was call the number on that page and asked what to do if he didn't have a proof of purchase.  They said photocopy the bottom of the mouse and mail a printout of that in.  You might want to call them to see if they still do that, however, as it has been six weeks since he got his mouse.

Sample pic:Decent $70 mouse =P

The "supplemental parts team" I believe.  You know, on the page you linked to in your previous post?
