Mousepads

<img src=“http://www.rpgclassics.com/staff/tenchimaru/td.gif”> Well, my mousepad died tonight in a freak soda accident (along with some of my keyboard. bah.), so I have to get a replacement one. This kinda got me curious, what mousepads do you all use? I had this really annoying thing with some anti-RSI standard built in, but it just got in the way so I’m actually glad that I killed it.

I use Calvin and Hobbes comic treasuries since they work far better than any of the mousepads I own.

Buy an optical mouse. No mousepad or cleaning required, and they’ve gotten cheap lately. I’ve been wanting to buy one myself.

I use a mousepad my library gave me.

teenspace.cincinnatilibrary.org, yo.

Yeah, an optical mouse is the best way to go. While you’re at it get a cordless one. Far better to use then one with a mouse pad required.

I don’t need one, I’ve got a stylus.

Don’t get cordless for quite a few reasons:

Batteries
Have to have the sensor 12 inches from ANY electronic equipment (Including computer, monitor, speakers, keyboard, printer, scanner)
Mouse has to be within only so many inches range that it eliminates one of the purposes cordless generally offers.

Don’t spill soda on your comp stuff and you wont have to replace it as much.

I have a Yoda mousepad :smiley: I also have an optical mouse, but it doesn’t work on black grain surfaces, which is my desk. so i use Yoda :smiley:

I have a Laser Quest one.

I use a Logitech Marble FX Trackball. Since i do alot of computer gaming, I wanted a mouse that doesnt move heh. Nothing sucks worse then playing Quake and having to reposition the mouse cause you ran out of desk heh.

I do however have a star wars mouse pad simply for show =)

This image on a Mousepad. Juju got it done at a store downtown. And if you’re wondering, that’s a fetus a necromancer is trying to resurrect for insane purposes.

Um. How does a mousepad die? Did the soda dissolve it or something? Maybe you bent it beyond repair?

Actually, the only thing worse than that is playing Quake with a trackball. Dear god man, what the hell are you thinking? Get rid of that shit and your game’ll increase 10 fold.

Hell no - I own with my trackball =)

I’ve had it so long its discontinued hehe

Ironically I have a Navy mouse pad. I need to change that…

Why buy, what you can have for free? Steal one from school. Or, just buy a 3$ one like me, optical mice are just a pain to fix when thewy break anyway.
