Whoops! Big mistake buddy, you said something on the internet. Now we’re gonna fight! I miss balled mice. How ‘bout them apples? Nothing is as satisfying as cleaning the lint out of those things was
Now days sure, but I’d take one of later really good ball mice over many of the shitty cheap mice you get packed in with stuff now. The first few optical mice that I owned were legit worse than ball mice, while being much more expensive. I kept going back to the ball mice and regretting my wasteful purchases. The first one good enough to really kill them off was probably the MS InteliMouse 3.0.
I will concede only in the fact that it made me look like a miracle worker to my parents when I “fixed” their mouse that had stopped working with my magic.
On the other hand, the Christmas I gave them an LED mouse was peak level for all of us.
I miss the weighty rubberized balls IN the balled mice! Talk about a free fidget toy!
However, do trackballs count as balled mice? Because I got one for my laptop recently and I LOVE it. Wish there was more of a market for nice trackballs, with an assortment of ball materials for different inertias and whatnot. Lol
No, trackballs are a separate thing. And their design is usually better at keeping debris out of the ball meaning less maintenance even though it’s exposed literally all of the time.
Wired vs. wireless is whatever works for you, but no one misses balled mice. No one.

Stealing all the balls from the computer lab at school was fun.
You’re a monster. And also my type of people.
Like they said, nobody.

Get a naked mole rat if you like bald mice. 😌

Less debris on the ball, but in my experience there’s more dust on the rollers. So it’s the same maintenance anyways.
