5 button vs 3 button mice, your preference?

[CleanSlate]

I, personally can't use a 3 button mouse anymore... if it's not 5 button I go crazy while I'm surfing the net searching for the mouse back and foreward buttons... lol.

What do you prefer?

I like my Intellimouse 4 button w/scroll.

I can't stand 3 button mouses either. I have a Logitech MX 700, it has 8 buttons and I use every one of them.

I stole 2 A4tech mice from my high school over a year ago and they're great. 2 scroll wheel and 5 button. I recently bought 2 more from newegg just in case i break mine.

I concur with you, Cleanslate. It's hard for me to use anything BUT an Intellimouse Optical. I absolutely get frustrated using a wheelmouse and it's just plain annoying to use an MX700.

I still don't understand how people manage using such a low grade product as a wheel mouse.

i love my MS explorer 3.0

although the MX515 (i think, that red one) may take my heart soon

 

[Visable-assassin]

i prefer at least 5
but my mx510 has 8 all of which i can program to work the way Id like

I like the 5 button, but hardly notice a difference unless I'm surfing the net (like at work w/a 3 button mouse).

What I notice though is a lot of mice are right-hand bias.


LEFTIES UNITE!

I want my old comport MS 3 Button mouse (no scroll) from 1992!

 

[BillLeeLee]

I like 3 buttons. In browsers, I just use mouse gestures to go back/forward.

Who needs 8 when a mac mouse will do just fine

That is cruel and unusual. Maybe your superego has crumbled...

I use an MX700 and am having loads of fun with it.

Can't live without my 8 Button Logitech MX500.

One button. Learn to use the keyboard, you hippy!

But to each his own.

lmao

I have a scroll wheel on my keyboard. It's pretty useless. I can't set it up for side scrolling, what's the point?

 

[d03boy]

Why even TRY setting it up for side scrolling when you can just have scrollwheel on your mouse?

That's your own problem, I suppose.

I scroll with the keyboard, as it is much faster and more precise.

I set my mouse scroll wheel to 5 lines a thingy. Must faster scrolling. I could care less about accuracy.

I'm using a microsoft mouse with a ball, two buttons, and a scroll wheel. Optical doesn't seem to like my mousepad, and I don't really care about extra buttons. A second wheel would be killer though.
