I currently use a basic USB Microsoft optical wheel mouse.  I've got a gift card for Circuit City burning a hole in my pocket and am considering a new wireless mouse.  I'll kick up the difference if I need to.  There's so many to choose from and such a wide price range.  I am considering the Logitech G5.

What works well for gaming - particularly HL2?  I am assuming that more than 3 buttons would help.  Please give me the benefit of your experiences.

I read ALL your private messages.

Sirus: Wait, you made the recovering alcoholic bring beer?
WDF: This shouldn't surprise you, this is me we're talking about... It'll be a test.

DUDE! I have that mouse, it's nice. It has buttons so you can adjust the sensitivity ingame, but kinda sux when you play, and switch it on accident. :/ You can always turn the buttons off.

I use a Logitech cordless G7 - The best mouse I have ever used..................  The good thing is that it comes with 2 lithium batteries so you always have one charged if they other one runs out of juice.

I have some POS Microsoft Optical, probably the same one you have. I thought it did its job well enough untill I started looking over the specs of the RAZER mice.

I might be upgrading with you, hell they even have cords that apparently dont tangle.

Thanks for the input.  I went with Sirus and ordered a Razer Diamondback in Salamander Red.  7 buttons - 5 fingers...  ought to keep me busy for a while.

I still got $1.22 left on my gift card!  Maybe I can buy a candy bar or something.

Believe me, if I started murdering people, there'd be none of you left.
