Ok
I use a rollerball or trackball what ever you wanna call it..But when I tell some one on the server this thier always like "what omg you need to get a real mouse!" so WTF whats the pros and cons??? Im really use to using mine but is thier a remote chance that a regular mouse could help my game play?? ( and yes I know I sux and nothing could really help. for any of the SMART @$$es that wanna post )
BTW when I say regular mouse I mean the laser mouse not the crappy ball ones |

I have a logitech optical trackball mouse, and I love it, that + 20 sensitivity = awesome scout pwning. The only thing that slows me down is the way I hold it, I'll run into my finger(I left click with my middle finger on my right hand, and move the ball with my thumb) |

WTF's the difference?
Is one the big ball on the top that you scoll with, and the other is the big crappy mouse on the bottem that you scroll with?
Laser is awesome.
Get the G7, it works fine as long as the receiver is near. |

I used a trackball mouse once.........I have as much luck with those that I do with trackpads on laptops. My hands are too big for mice and keyboards, but i do like my logitech mx518. I had a mx510 before that, but I got mad, hulked up, and stomped the hell out of it. |

Wahoo that would be the MX518. The same one I and Corran have. I belive Toughie was it to. It has the grey and black marble Pattern on it and it works really nice. |

I have a Logitech optical two buttom w/ scroll wheel. I can't imagine using a trackball or old ball mouse...cleaning gunk (skin oil and dirt) out of the ball's sensors is a pain in the arse. |
