Need a new mouse for my iMac, I don't rate the magic 2 mouse, trying the magic trackpad out atm, it's better but don't think I'll prefer it over a good mouse.
So any suggestions please for a wireless mouse for a desktop?
I've owned a Logitech MX Revolution for probably 7 years now. It was the replacement for the awful corded Mighty Mouse that came with my 2008 iMac and has served me faithfully. Had to replace the battery a year or two ago but otherwise perfectly happy. The current model is called the MX Master. Pricey, but hey, you gets what you pays for!Originally Posted by jegger
looks good, only thing is I'm a lefty!!
Ahhhh I see! You didn't specify that ;-)
A company called Razer (an offshoot of Belkin I believe) make a lot of gaming peripherals and have some lefty mice. If you can get past the styling (not my cup o' tea), the quality will definitely be there.
I particularly like the Microsoft Wireless Mouse 2000. Comfortable, not too small, not too large, physically durable, good battery life. I think it should be Mac compatible.
Hopefully Microsoft are still making them or something similar.
Do you use your mouse in your left hand? The Microsoft mouse I suggest above is symmetrical, so can be used left handed.
Although I'm left handed I find it far easier to use my mouse in my right hand.

Quite a few of the Logitech mice are ambidextrous
yeah I use the mouse in my left hand.
My last mouse was a Microsoft, I rate them and Logitech.
I like the MX versions by Logitech, the MX Master is on sale at the moment in Currys/PCWorld for £55
I've had two Logitech mouses(?) which developed an involuntary double click just over twelve months after purchase. The last one was still under warranty so I did get a new one FOC from Logitech, but their customer service procedures are like trying to run through waist deep treacle. When this version packs up I shall be looking elsewhere.
+1 on any Logitech mice that suit your left handedness. I've been using them for 15 years for my mice, apart from a brief foray across to Microsoft when they did a collaboration with Razer and particularly like the the new gaming variants even though I gave up needing them for that years ago purely because of the range of adjustability on weight and DPI settings.
Possibly not the most helpful answer, but I moved to a logitech track ball two years ago and find it a massive improvement over a mouse or trackpad.
Someone bought me this is a gift.
It works :)
