I have hated that mouse for years. No part of it makes any sense: The charging port is fucked, the touch scroll sucks ass, the buttons don’t really work, the sensitivity is completely fucked on numerous apps and it’s generally useless as a device. The worst bit is that there isn’t a fucking power led and have just tossed it in my bag leaving work. I get home open my laptop and nothing works because the button is reading as pressed. He worser part is that it takes about 5mins after boot before the trackpad clicks stop because the mouse button is pressed.

The ADB mouse II was fantastic for the day. Unfortunately it was still square in the middle of one button madness, but otherwise felt great to use. The puck and everything after it have been total garbage.

Apple and mouses: the eternal struggle.
I still remember the apple hockey puck mouse. I mean, was there ever a good mouse?
The Logitech 3F-A0. It was still a ball mouse, but had it for years. For a time, it was the best, in my opinion.

Thanks, I’m always happy to check slightly obscure hardware :)
