I'd like to discuss the pros and cons of my favorite mice here. Feel free to add to the discussion.

Basic Microsoft Mouse
+ Show Spoiler +
[image loading]
Standard house mouse
Pros:
* Cheap.
* You probably have one lying around the house, no reason to go to Best Buy.
* Decent weight, pretty comfortable.
* Adorable!
Cons:
* Mouse fanboys will scorn your taste in such simple mice.
* No extra functions.


Razer DeathAdder
+ Show Spoiler +

[image loading]
Fancy mouse
Pros:
* Additional buttons!
* As you can see, comfortably fits in the palm of your hand.
* Improved reflexes, cuteness per inch (CPI), etc.

Cons:
* Will cost you a bundle more.
* Some people don't like black on a mouse.


Logitech G5
+ Show Spoiler +

[image loading]
Wild grey mouse

Pros:
* Added functions.
* Improved precision and movement (learned from life in the wild perhaps?)
* Adjustable weight.

Cons:
* Expensive if you can buy one.
* Hard to find. You really gotta go out and find one.


EDIT: I used the search function and could not find a thread about mice.

You forgot one of the most important parts of mouse ownership, a mousepad.

No mousepad

Pros:
Cheap

Cons:
Can ruin the surface


Cheap mousepad

Pros: Isolates mouse from environment, keeps it where it should be

Cons: Doesn't have too many features


Game mousepad

Pros: Keeps mouse happy, allows it to perform at its best

Cons: Expensive, difficult to maintain


Hopefully my guide helps as well!

Lila i honestly hope this is a humor thread and note a serious thread, as it's full of opinions. I personally prefer Imperator over DA.
Fear the mango! update, ok I honestly didn't know there was a mod named Mango when I made this

Same thing happened to my Naga. And my Deathadder before that.

Seriously though, I'm never buying a Razer again. Can't believe that POS died after 3 months. I'm now back on my totally fucked up looking 5 year old MX518 that still works like on its first day. ;_;

Clever advertising. Our "mice" can eat yours any day.

I'm really sad at all the snake/mouse pictures in this thread.

Hey, the mouse lives in mine... or at least for the duration of the GIF.
