The Like/Hate Thread

[Belle Hibiki]

I've used wired mice my entire life and I honestly can't think of a time when the cord has ever gotten tangled while plugged in at my desks. There's always been simply too much space that my cord has to travel when running through the back of my desk and around into my computer for it to ever risk that. It's NEVER been an issue, but even if for some freakish reason I did have so much slack that it could potentially be, I'd just fold up enough wire to get rid of the slack, close to the usb connector (so the weight is supported by the case and not tugging on the mouse), and secure the folds with a twist tie. Or rubber band. Or binder clip. Or string.

My opinion on wireless vs. wired is basically this: can you remember to seat and recharge your shit regularly? If so, then which one you get is strictly preference and will probably be down to whichever one has the model you want. If you're like me, though, and are constantly forgetting to plug in things like your cell phone and iPod, wired will probably win out.
