    Mouse or Touchpad?

    I just don't know what to use. I prefer to use my mouse for Warcraft III, but then again I like to use my touchpad when I use AIM and other programs. I want to just stick to one. What do you think I should do?

        I've only used a touchpad once, but I really liked it. I'd go with touchpad but I have a mouse.

            I prefer trackballs, but most people I've ever talked to have said that trackballs annoy them or hurt their thumb. Pansies.

            Anywho: Mouse gives more flexibility. Touchpads can be annoying as hell. Why not just use both, though?
            So I've gone completely slack-ass and haven't done any work on creating games. =(

            In less-depressing news, I got a job for an online business (which sells non-electronic games, of all things!) which has taught me a lot about marketing online and all that jazz.

            So now I'm on Twitter @NoahWright.
            And I write the blog for their website.

            Plus I do cool programming in-house that you'll never see. =O

              I can use both. The touchpad sometimes scrolls around on its own, but the mouse has a ball and not the laser thing, and gets stuck on bumps or crevices is the surface I am using it on. But still which one is better. So far its Mouse for me..... I know I will try that one my dad got mad and put it in the shed! Ill post when I find it...

                  Buy a laser or optical mouse.

                  Ta-da!

                  I prefer mice. I have a ball mouse, too, though. I still like it more than a touch pad, in any case.

                  Signature subject to change.

                      After using a laptop for over two years, I can safely say

                      Mouse.

                      Just that you're a piece of shit who can't see reason and instead deserves a fucking beating.

                          Well, I found the other mouse. It's really shiny and it's a memorex. Then there's the one I got for Christmas. They both have the little ball under them, no laser or optic. The memorex ran alittle smoother across my paper mousepad. The one I got for Christmas jerked or you could say Lagged alittle. Then I tested the touchpad by playing Warcraft III and I hated every second of it. I think I am going to look for another mouse, just to see what it is like. My dad said that there is a box of them up in the shed from his old work. I doubt any work with todays technology.

                            Touchpads annoy the hell out of me, especially on FFRcade. Mice are much easier to use.
