Question What kind of mouse do YOU use?

Hey all-

I like opinions from people who have a clue. By default, all of you reading this are more into PC's and gaming than, say, the guy in the next cubicle.

What mouse do YOU use? I'm looking into a new mouse to support my First-person shooter addiction, but that can also be used for everyday work. Comfort is more important to me than anything else, so what do you recommend?

Thanks!

I am personally using a Cheep ACURATUS (never herd of brand lol) Laser mouse, its fine, works great. But you can tell it was cheep sometimes. I would use a Logitech G5, Or Razer mouse.

Thanks.

Logitech MX-310 cheap but very good.

EDIT: Got mine for $15.99 at staples.

Razer diamondback is what i use, wouldn't be without it for CSS. Much better than any logitech or microsoft mouse i've used however the shape isnt very ergonomic and I wouldn't recommend it if you have large hands.

If I was buying a mouse right now? it would have to be the The Razer DeathAdder... all the razer goodness plus right hand ergonomics.

You want my advice? steer clear of that tacky logitech !%&@

Razer Diamondback
Razer Diamondback™ Gaming Mouse - $59.99 | Razer | Professional Gaming Peripherals

The Death Adder looks sweet. NewEgg doesn't have it yet, but you can order it through Razer's site:
Razer DeathAdder™ Gaming Mouse [RZ01-00150100-R2M1] - $59.99 | Razer | Professional Gaming Peripherals

EDIT: NewEgg HAD it... they're out right now.
Newegg.com - RAZER RZ01-00150100-R2M1 Black 5 Buttons 1 x Wheel USB Optical DeathAdder High Precision Gaming Mouse - Retail
Same price as Razer's site.

Yeah, see I DO like the Razer name, but I DO have big hands, and uncomfortable mice make me crazy. The Death Adder thingy has better ergos?

Hummmm...

(Isn't it funny how we all love Newegg?)
