[AT] OT--laser vrs optical mouse, etc. (meece)

[Larry Goss]

Over the years, I've probably owned several dozen computer mice of every type and decription thinkable.  My personal preference is any model of WACOM tablet with a combination of stylus and mouse.  I do a lot of pixel-level work on old photos.  Having instant interchangablity from mouse to stylus is a definite plus, and there is NEVER a battery that needs to be worried about.  Can I buy one for 10 bucks?  No, but there are times when you shouldn't go with the lowest bidder.
