Optical. Get the Microsoft Intellimouse explorer (if you are right handed) Because it is a *VERY* good mouse. I love 'em. And for the record the Microsoft (as much i hate the company) also make a damn good Keyboard too. The Internet Keyboard. Mucho useful.
Now, aren't you sorry you didn't just keep on scrolling?

Personally I prefer the Ergonomic (I have probably spelt that wrong) Keyboard... That is the best M$ Keyboard... I have one... Bloody good.

That's the one.

They are actually very comfortable... Also helps to tackle RSI.

I have an A4 Wacom Tablet at home for my Mac... They are great for Graphic Design (using Photoshop etc).
RSI because it is shaped how your hands naturally sit on a keyboard.

Problem with ergonomic keyboards is that you have to be able to touch-type...us poor hunt-and-peck people have a bit of a hard time on them!

Well in fact there is such a model but you can change the batteries each day I think *g - buy just a optical mouse, will be the best.. Also the good old ball-mouses aren't that bad though.
