I've been using my Mac Pro for a few years now, and the Mighty Mouse is starting to drive me crazy. The scroll ball jams up every few days and has to be thoroughly cleaned and smacked around just to work again.<br> <br> I also have a Logitech gaming mouse from my previous PC, but it doesn't have the ability to assign buttons to Exposé and Spaces, which is something I really, really enjoy. <br> <br> Is there a 3rd party mouse that can be programmed to take on these functions, but doesn't have that horrible little scroll ball of the Mighty Mouse? <br> <br> If not, can I either clean the scroll ball so that it STAYS clean, or get software to make my Logitech (MX 5000, I think) work properly?<br> <br> It doesn't have to be cordless, and it doesn't have to be too gamer-friendly, since I switch to my Logitech for WoW, etc. anyway.<br> <br> Thanks. tag:ask.metafilter.com,2008:site.83399 Mon, 11 Feb 2008 17:35:18 -0800 Apple exposé logitech Mac Macintosh mightymouse mouse scrollball spaces Doctor Suarez http://ask.metafilter.com/68324/Give%2Dmy%2DMighty%2DMouse%2Da%2Dmighty%2Ddouse%2Dof%2Dmousepad%2Dlovin What mousepad would you use with a Mighty Mouse? Sparing me all hatred and burnination for the Mighty Mouse, what mousepad(s) would you recommend for it? I've got a flat topped IKEA Galant desk, and since it's wood with a stained/painted finish, I don't want to just use the desk surface. tag:ask.metafilter.com,2007:site.68324 Wed, 01 Aug 2007 12:14:10 -0800 apple mightymouse mouse mousepad chrisfromthelc
