Yikes. If you're accidentally clicking on that ad (ie. when you're not activley trying to), I'd definitely be getting a better mouse. It may hurt Steve's ad revenue a bit, but I'm sure he'll live.

As for what mouse, I'd get a Logitech G5 or a Razer Diamondback, Copperhead, or Habu. Why do I make those suggestions? Well, that's a whole other thread, but suffice to say they're good mice that will serve you better then cheaper, lower quality, less efficient alternatives.

The #1 rule when buying a computer mouse is to find one that suits YOUR needs/style/preferences. Even if everyone says "this mouse is the best", if it doesn't suit your particular preferences, it won't help you. If you want more info, read the following comments I made on the Lifehack.org website. I don't exactly like the writing style I used for comments, but there's some good info in there:

When I get the chance, I'll actually make a decent thread about computer mice.
