Post New Mouse needed

Alright, the old mouse was an IBM optical mouse (30-40$) and I'm pretty sure it was a fscking M$ mouse. Btw I'd only bought it a few months ago, it didn't exacty last long, I wouldn't be suprised since it broke easily. It was the most comfortable out the store selection, and purchased it for that reason.

The scroll wheel broke, and the little piston inside the wheel was sticking to one of the pads on the sides, and making it constantly scroll up & down many, many times a second - it was unusable. Normall, the warranty would of covered this. However, I figured out pressing down on the wheel fixed it for a while. Did this for a while, eventually it stopped fixing it, and I got frustrated, and bashed it once lol. Popped the left button off, so now the warranty is gone. Poo.

So, what is a GOOD as in durable, reliable, and accurate, optic mouse? I use a mouse to draw as a tablet. So I need noe that's comfortable and accurate, and can register alot of very fine movement. Mouse can do lines tablet cant, and visa versa. Either a specific model, or a brand you know that's good. I know I'm never getting an IBM mouse again, ever.

Logitec Optical mouses are great. Dont get any of those crappy ball mice. Do they even make those anymore. Bah if they do, good if they dont.

Actually im having to resort to this busted up old ball mouse until I get a new one. It works 'okay', but the wheels inside the mouse, that register the ball movement, well one of them gets stuck really easily. Or it can't read data anymore. So it can go around normally, but cant go down & right, it'll stop. Lol
