Ask HN: preferred pointing device?

2 points by ConstantineXVI 13y ago ↗ HN

Almost never see this topic come up; does anyone have a (desktop) pointing device they swear by? Currently using a MS "natural" mouse, but not super thrilled with it.

(For what it's worth, currently tempted by the Expert Mouse (trackball) and Magic Trackpad)

Magic Trackpad because of all the gestures. Selecting text is a pain but if you've learnt the keyboard shortcuts for the IDE/TextEditor it's not an issue.
