Mouse recommendations

Postby AJMatthews on Thu Apr 09, 2020 11:12 pm

Hi all,

Looking for a nice, solid, cheap mouse for playing Links. My old mouse is not cooperating with my new setup with regard to playing Links and my snap is even worse using the the keyboard. I have a very old PS2 trackman that is decent for links but terrible for everything else so I'm looking for a cheap alternative solution.

Appreciate any suggestions!

Thanks,
AJ

I'm using a Logitech M100. It's been a good mouse for me (and others, I believe) and is relatively inexpensive. Unfortunately, the operator is faulty.

I've been using a corded Logitech M500 for a while.
Multiple selection buttons.
Seems to be working OK!

I have a Logitech wireless with dongle, which included a keyboard, an MS 3500 with blue dongle and a Logitech Master 25 Bluetooth. The first logitech mouse is rather old and I suspect sometimes off a bit, the latter two good.

Old Logitech and MS corded mouse has always been a favorite for me. Wireless have an eratic delay that is just plain unplayable for me.

I bought an M100 and it seems to be pretty darn good. Thanks for the advice!
