Sagebrush posted:i have one of these too it's also a PITA to learn how to use accurately. i'm still not very good at moving in fewer than ~two axes at once. i also got it as a controller for teleoperated 6DOF things but i have yet to use it in that particular application!

 this serial Genius Generic Mouse has virtually identical feel to the later Symbolics mouse, despite the latter being manufactured by Logitech (early Symbolics mouse was Mouse Systems) conveniently speaks Mouse Systems protocol too so it's trivial to interface to just about anything

wireless mice are great for an office if you have a laptop, just pick up the mouse when you grab your laptop to go to a conference room or w/e, no cable to unplug and wrap up

The best desktop mouse is still the Logitech g9 uber leet gamer mouse I use it because it has a noticeably higher precision than any wireless mouse I've used, not just in games, but in design stuff like Photoshop and Solidworks. Moving a single pixel is more reliable and repeatable. recent wireless models like the anywhere MX are pretty good too, but still not up to the level of a wired mouse with an ultrahigh report rate I've had that same mouse since 2009 and have replaced the nonreplaceable cord on it twice

G402 hyperion fury here. My G400 kicked the bucket and logitech sent me a G402 as a warranty replacement. Pretty good mouse. Scroll wheel button failed so they sent me a second G402.

i think the real trick there is gonna be getting electromyographic data that's clean enough and repeatable enough to use for pixel-precision movement. on an HD display that's about +/-0.05%

If you care more about durability than sensor or expandability, get the CH DT225. It's truly the Model M (or even Model F?) of trackballs.
