    I'm posting here since you are more likely to be interested in ergonomics than most people.

    Which mouse do you guys use? I've tried a wide variety but found nothing that is really comfortable.

    Thankful for your help guys.

    I have http://www.keenzo.com/showproduct.asp?M … 890&ref=GB

    It's not exactly ergonomic, but it has little indents for fingers and thumb. I also like the 2 buttons on the side. If you want ergonomic, http://maltron.com/maltron-acc-whale.html would probably be good because it comes from maltron.com.

    I don't use a mouse at all anymore.  I like the trackpad that comes on most (all?) laptops.  For desktops, I use the misnamed Logitech Marble Mouse, which is really a trackball.   The moment I got and tried my first Marble Mouse, I suddenly lost interest in looking at all the glamorous ad copy and in-depth online reviews for regular mice -- they seem to be marketed like cars, down to the looks and the names.  (Not that I have attained input-device bodhisattvahood -- I still drool at keyboard information.)

    If my desktop keyboard has a numpad, I enable Mouse Keys.  (Using Mouse Keys with the embedded numpad on a compact keyboard is not worth it.)

    Neither a mouse nor a trackball is going to help you much if you are into drawing on the computer.

    I've been using the Logitech Trackman Wheel for years now:

    Never looked back...  I've got one at home and one at work.

    http://www.amazon.com/Micro-Innovations … B000BX485E is the mouse I've been using for a while.  My only real complaint would be the fact that it uses AAA batteries.  Though, a pair of energizer lithiums last about 1.5 months in it even though I use my computer pretty regularly.  I should really switch to some good rechargeable batteries or just get a mouse with a charging dock.(Something like this one http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a … aser%2bMou )

    My previous mouse was a Razer Lachesis, which was close to perfect. I did switch to a Logitech G9 later, because of its tilt wheel. The Logitech mouse does look ugly and uncomfortable IMHO, but it feels surprisingly natural and comfortable.
